glad you posted more. I believe I found someone!!! (got to check my recs when I get home from work, but the name and place - Cokesbury - are definitely somewhere in my gedcom files) Based on the age at death, I think I can pretty much figure out the year of death. Mrs. HILDEBRANDT was (as noted) the daughter of John M. JOHNSON and Lydia JOHNSON - I think that Lydia's maiden name was HOPE, and that she was the daughter of Adam HOPE and Nancy (a.k.a. Anna) LOMERSON. (But this is from memory and I need to check). Now it appears, that I have the name of the Lydia's daughter's married name and other married females (which I wouldn't have had otherwise) - hopefully I am correct in my memory as to this person.

Thanks for the posting. Now, I wonder why your Aunt saved this one? Was Ms. Hildebrandt a friend or relation of your aunt?

Anyone interested in or with knowledge of the people listed in the HILDEBRANDT obit, please contact me.

after my great Aunt passed away. She unfortunately made no note of what paper
they came from or the date. I felt they may still provide important clues for
somebody and other listers agreed so I have been posting them regardless.
