We encourage you to create pages for your Hilltown ancestors. We currently have two templates to choose from including a new Civil War Soldier template. For additional help editing the biography template including adding photographs and documents visit the [[Help:Contents | Help Section]].

'''Please Do not create biographies of living people. It is okay to list living people if listed as children just do not list birth dates or locations of the living.'''

==Creating Biographies==
[[Image:Bradley,Justice.jpg|200px|thumb|right|<center>Justice Bradley</center>]]
When creating biographies, they should contain the following information:<br>

*Birth dates and location
*Parents names
*Occupations
*Marriage date and location
*Information on children
*Death date and location
*Burial location<br>

You are not limited to just this information! Add whatever you know and think should be there. Other things you may choose to include may be:<br>

*Military service
*Hobbies
*Organizations
*Education information
*Places they resided<br>

==Biography Templates==
Two templates are included below. The first is for anyone, and the third is a new template for Civil War Soldiers. The Civil War template has a special section for military service date. View the Template Examples to see which you prefer, then click the appropriate '''Use This Template''' link to create your page.
