Shared note

Also called Emilia. The DAR report on Amilia says she was "Granddaughter
of John Edmund Thorne (b. 1815) and Abby Leningtog, his wife." Apart
from mis-spelling, this is wrong because JET and Sarah Lenington
Thorne (given as mother) were the same age.

Here is the account: 'Born in Hoboken, New Jersey. Wife of Hugo
B. Roelker. Descendant of Ensign Thomas Lenington, of New York. Daughter
of Henry Lefman and Sarah Lenington Thorne, his wife. Granddaughter
of John Edmund Thorne (b. 1815) and Abby Leningtog, his wife. Gr.-granddaughter
of Thomas Lenington and Sarah Van Sickles, his wife. Gr.-gr.-granddaughter
of Thomas Lenington and Sarah Sickerton, his wife, m. 1777.'

FHH: "Here is how I give the descendancy: Daughter of Sarah Lenington
Thorne, grand-daughter of Abigail Lenington (b. 1793) and John Thorne
(b. 1782), great-grand-daughter of Sarah Sickerton and Thomas Lenington
(b. 1722). As I see it, Sarah Lenington Thorne and John Edmund Thorne
were sister and brother."

FHH also writes (7 Feb 1986) that Minnie and Hugo had one child who
died.

Note

Florence Hadley Heynen says she lived at 43 W. 97th St. NYC.
