HUGH  MORGAN  VANGILDER   (1867 - 1937)
 
 
Notes and comments.

Blanche gave birth to Hazel and Hope on June 23, four years apart. Gilbert married Hope on her birthday. Hope frequently commented that she had "lost" an anniversary to celebrate. For this reason, the four Leffel sisters scheduled a family reunion at the end of June every year.
