Another mentions an Alfred Hill assuming her care for the sum of $1200. Perhaps she was incompetent. Her burial was paid for by a John Snyder, who I assume to be husband of Mary Ann Snyder, who was a granddaughter of Eliab and Prudence Ellison, and daughter of Philinda.) *Note: Emily Ellison m. William P. Walrath as his second wife. (Jerome A. Walrath) The Ellison family, at least from the census, were from the village of Herkimer. |
