Was Hilda Here?

Family, Road Trip

As the family story goes Steve’s cousin Hilda lived in an orphanage for a few years after her parents’ death then lived “with relatives in Lima, Ohio” before marrying in Toledo where she and Ed spent the rest of their lives. We’re curious as to who these relatives might be so we decided to do a bit of investigation while we were in the area. We had a pleasant time in the public library and in the genealogy department where Angel tried to help us figure it out with whom she might have lived between 1914 and 1916, but to no avail. The mystery persists.
