I received David Hill’s research manuscript two years after I had begun reporting on the 13 families. 
David Hill had done what I had originally done. He had asked questions and began to dig into who 
pulled the strings in this country. Both David and I discovered the names of some of the more obvious 
powerful families. For instance, in David’s notes he writes, "Yes, it is a fact: the Mellons, Carnegies, 
Rothschilds, Rockefellers, Dukes, Astors, Dorrances, Reynoldses, Stilimans, Bakers, Pynes, Cuilmans, 
Watsons, Tukes, Kleinworts, DuPonts, Warburgs, Phippses, Graces, Guggenheims, Milners, Drexels, 
Winthrops, Vanderbilts, Whitneys, Harknesses and other super rich Illuminated families generally get 
along quite well with Communists, who supposedly want to take away the wealth of these men and 
give it to the people.
