Many thanks, Cathy! Is anyone connected with the "D.L. Best" below? My relative is Sarah M. Best, b. Sep 1873; d. 1895; she is buried with her parents, John M. Best and Hannah Saunders at the Union Cemetery in Stanhope. Her sister was Lena M. Best, b. 1878. Sarah married James Edward Hamler in 1893 in Sussex Co., NJ. As you can see from Sara's dates, they were not married for very long before her death. Kathleen >>Hi Folks, While looking for my own, I will make note of some snippets which mention multiple surnames in the hopes that someone will score a missing maiden name using them.
