    3. I just got a coroners report for, I'm positive, my great grandmother. It's a report from 1887. All information on the report, jibes with her year of birth (which I only know approximately), place of birth and how long she has lived in America. The question is the cemetery. The handwriting is a bit florid but still quite readable. Except for the cemetery. I've never heard of this one. It could be Hittman Cemetery, Fittman Cemetery, can't think of anything else. There's no clue as to where the cemetery may be. Her place of death was 323 W. 53rd St., so she could be in Manhattan, Bronx, maybe Brooklyn? Maybe it's Hithman or Fithman. Still makes no sense. I've searched the web and no such place. Any ideas? Barbara Kiersh Jacksonville, FL
