Elizabeth Patterson
Hi David! I work at the Hollywood Roosevelt and have been trying to find more details about Elizabeth Patterson's residence here. I'm trying to find out what room she stayed in but our records don't seem to go back that far. I could have sworn I saw saw something about room 508 in my search last week but can't seem to find it now. Any help you could give would be great! I have a guest arriving in a few weeks who would be so happy to know the answer! Thanks!

Elizabeth Patterson obit
Hello:

I enjoyed reading your nice obit for Elizabeth Patterson, one of my favorite character actresses of vintage Hollywood. I did notice one discrepancy though. You state that Miss Patterson lived her final 25 years at the Hollywood Hotel, here in Hollywood. Since the hotel was torn down in 1956 and Miss Patterson passed away in 1966, I'm curious about the ten-year difference. Thank you,

Chris Nickens

Emma Johanna Knittle Blakely and Family in California
Dear David, Could you please contact me at my email, liketobeinmaine@gmail.com about Emma Johanna Knittle Blakely who's memorial you have, and her family. I have a researcher who is driving me bonkers for some kind of proof that Emma Johanna Knittle Blakely was Nathan and Lydia McCord Knittle's daughter . She was not my g.g.grandfather Aaron S Knittle and Sarah Campbell Knittle's daughter as reported erroneously in the history of Columbia Co. Pa and the Knittle Family history.If you do not have any information that would link her to any parent can you forward my email address to them. Some where there has got to be a marriage record, letters home to parents or family or a listing of births and deaths in a family bible etc. Enjoyed reading your memorials of family and close kindered, not all of us had happy lives so appreciate seeing how life was for others and how they came through it, and what gave them the character they had. My adopted grandmother always recited a poem , to the effect if you could draw back the curtain on a persons life, see what spurned the word said and action taken you would under stand them a bit better.Still might not like them, but the view is clearer. Thanks for your help C. Campbell

Hamlows in Rose Hill Cemetery, Waverly Nebraska
Because you have posted old photographs for some of the Hamlows in Rosehill Cemetery and elsewhere I am suspicious that you are somehow related. My grandmother was Sophia Eva Hamlow Walker.

Her children were orphaned two of the three as young adults. Bill, the youngest as a pre-teen.
Consequently I have never seen any of the photographs you have submitted.

If you are related I'd love to talk and share information

RE: Jean Iles
I noticed that there are two listings for the same cemetery and I sent a message to Find-a-Grave to see if they will merge them. so the next time you check you might see that instead of 46 interments there are more than 1500 in the graveyard.

Hello;

I am curious how you are related to Alice Durkee Hamlow? She was my father's first cousin and she gave me information on my Durkee family years ago. I was happy to see the tribute to her. My e-mail is Chessielong@aol.com.
Thanks, Diane Norcross Long

Correction to Welk Family Photograph
I really enjoyed your memorial and photographs for Lawrence Welk. I noticed that the date in the caption for the Welk family photograph has Fern Welk's dates listed as "1903 - 1992", I believe they should be listed as 1903 - 2002. Thank you for doing such a fine job on the Welk information. I wish you a very Merry Christmas and happy New Year!

Forest Lawn Glendale said jennifer jones' ashes are not in the Selznick area. I spent 30 minutes with them researching this today. She is listed as the owner of the family vault

Doris Singleton
Hi David:

Nice tribute to the elegant, wise and dynamic, Doris Singleton.

One minor error...she appeared on "I Love Lucy" a total of 10 times.

I was fortunate enough to be in her company at that last public appearance at the TV Academy Hall of Fame back on March 1, 2012 in Beverly Hills, CA. She was beautiful, funny and ever the consummate professional. You could not help but be swept away by her natural charm and wit. She truly, was a lovely woman.

Thank again for the great tribute.
