Notes - Letters from my grandfather to my grandmother while he was seeing to her affairs when she was in the hospital were dated the last week of December 1933. I'm guessing that she died around that time. In looking through the letters that I have, I found letters that had been sent by Florence Druliner to Emily Vail. I wonder if she died before Florence and when they went through her stuff, they gave them back to Florence. One letter was from my grandfather to Aunt Emily and Aunt Kate Vail. This doesn't make complete sense to me since the envelop was addressed to Miss Emily Vail. If they were cousins or sisters-in-law, it might be that they were called aunts but actually weren't related by blood.
