I think this might be about Laura L. (Humston) Dillman, wife of Jerome B. Dillman and daughter of William H. and Lorena (Slater) Humston. I have a birth date of 1861 for Jerome B. Dillman, son of Henry F. and Martha Jane (Stain) Dillman. I have a marriage date of 30 December 1886 for Jerome B. Dillman and Laura L. Humston. That could place her death in the 1930s. I don't have enough information about the couple to determine if this is the right person. Does anyone else have information that would help determine their identity? -----Original Message----- From: inmonroe-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:inmonroe-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Randi Richardson via Sent: Thursday, January 07, 2016 8:44 PM To: INMonroe@rootsweb.com Subject: [INMONROE] Laura C.
