Is there a connection?

My Great Great Grandmother was a woman called Norah Morris and her husband was Alfred Edward Hill, I would love to know if the Swift family where the connectin to them meeting. so here goes.

Norah Morris (1892-1972) dau of.
James Morris (1848-?) and Martha Swift (1835-?) from Dymock, Gloucestershire
Martha dau of.
Thomas Swift (1811-1898) of Dymock, and Mary Ann Phelps (1818-?) also of Dymock
he was the son of
Joseph Swift and Mary Chamberlain

Norah's husband Alfred Edward Hill (1882-1930) is the son of

William Arthur Hill (1841-1903) and Agnes Watson (1840-1883) as you can see Agnes died a year after Alfred was born and in 1890 (with 10 kids from the ages of 24 to 8) he married Laura Swift born 24 April 1868 in Ledbury Herefordshire

they had three children
Laura Gladys Hill b 1891
William Hill b 1895
Lily Hill b 1900

Laura was the dau of
John Swift b 1818 in Ledbury, Herefordshire and
Charlotte Sophia Maisey b 1831 in Bromesberrow, Gloucestershire.

seeing as there is only 5 miles between Ledbury and Dymock does anyone have a connection between the two familys? could a family connection be how Alfred and Norah met?
