Valentina's parents were my great great grandparents. She was a sister to my great grandma, so Valentina was my great great aunt.
Her mother, the widowed Mary, seems to have moved into the city of Philadelphia, leaving the relative suburb of Roxborough, and at the time of Valentina's death was living at 35 N. 40th Street, which puts her near 40th and Market in west Philadelphia. As Valentina's death certificate says she was only 3 months of age at her death on April 4, 1891, we can surmise she was born in January of 1891, and assuming she was full term, was conceived in April of 1890, only months before her father died. Her date of birth, since this supposition, has been confirmed in city birth records, as occurring January 2, 1891. She was not named on the record, nor is her father, but her mother is listed as Mary Kimpel.
Young Valentina passed of tubercular meningitis. She was the sister of my great grandmother Rosena Katterina Kimpel.
