Dear Ms Hilderbrand:
When surfing the internet I came upon your name as one of the town
historians and am contacting you for possible assistance. I am 81 years
of age with roots in the Poughkeepsie, Chelsea, Fishkill, and Wappin-
gers Falls areas. In my retirement years I have been conducting gene-
alogical research on my family tree line. Currently, I am searching for
information of my mother's sister (my aunt) who lived her life in Wap-
pingers Falls.
Perhaps you could help me in my search or suggest other sources of
historical information whom I may contact.
My aunt's name was Alma Whitesell (second marriage name). I can
remember visiting her often in the 1930s when I was growing up. She
lived by herself in a house on the east side of Route 9 just as you enter
town coming from Poughkeepsie. She sported a green Packard Con-
vertible and was the talk of the town in those days.
Would appreciate any information you can provide or suggest.
Very truly yours,
c7.a ~~-
