Gill is an unincorporated community and former railroad town in Lincoln County, West Virginia, United States.
Captain Henry Farley, a veteran of the Revolutionary War and resident of Montgomery County, Virginia, was the first known Anglo visitor to present-day Gill.
In June 1792, Captain Farley passed through the area while pursuing a Native American war party that had raided Virginia settlements at Bluestone River.
Paris Brumfield, a son of John H. and a major character in the Lincoln County Feud, was born and raised in this vicinity.
Gill's prosperity was linked to its location at the mouth of Big Ugly Creek and its proximity to the Chesapeake and Ohio Railway.
