Terry was born in Carmel, New York on March 22, 1934, to the late Arthur and Alice (Guillemette) Plante, and settled in Sanford where she was raised. She married Warren Hilton on March 31,1951 and together they raised four children. Terry worked in a leather mill, for a local grocer, and at Sprague Electric.
