Hoffmans daughter Lena was married to a Charles E Robinson and their daughter Olive Ammelia is my mother-in-laws mother. Lena and Charles divorced and she married a second time and had another daughter. I think I have Lena's divorce papers somewhere. So I guess the question is who is Hoffmans parents, I found the information in the census records Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
