2001 After talking with her on the phone, I received a hand written letter from Hilda, March 2001.. "Dear Kevin, your grandma Leora's cousin was my husband who passed away of a heart attack July 9, 1991. We have 7 children living and one passed. Now all are married and we have nineteen grand children. So.. see why I'm so tired? I'm 85 years old in October, live alone, very tired of it, but too old now to go looking for a man!!... Richard's wife Leota or (Boots) Hart Wregglesworth is the genealogist of the family and will be in touch with you soon. While waiting, try the library in Lansing, your cousin, young Bill Morgan who's wife's name was Geraldine, went there and searched the Morgans and got some good info. Good luck, More later... sincerely, Hilda... Hug your grandma for me o.k?" Hilda passed away 3 months after writing this letter.
