Joseph is on the right of the tombstone and to his left is his wife Victoria (Victorina) and their daughter Gloria. I told you before there was a real family problem, which I can tell you about when I see you. My Uncle Peter Tillman who bought that plot for his sisters did not want Joseph buried there. My mother convinced him to let Joe be buried by his wife and daughter which was his last request. My uncle finally said okay but his last name was not to be put on the stone. I went right to the cemetery and saw the register so I can verify that they are buried there and on those dates.
The custodian at the cemetery told me Gustav and Edmond are both in the same plot. I have to go to New Jersey on Friday to see my grandson in a play so I will go down early so I can go to both cemeteries to get more info. I will be able to see the register myself and get a little more detail; dates, etc.
I am going to go to Calvary Cemetery too. So I will check out the other Van Landshoot as well as the Wieme family who are all buried there. There are other Tillman's in Calvary, including my great grandmother and great grandfather. He was Peter Tillman and she was Adelaide de Fleishauer.
I am still combing that site you sent me for relatives. I still cannot find Sabina Coene's parents. Whatever you can tell me would be appreciated.
Thank you for the lovely photo. Now you must tell me who are these handsome young men and the pretty lady in the middle? Is one yourself?
New York is no problem for me. Paterson is about 20 miles from NYC. I could stay an overnight by relatives down there. I am 2 hours away in the Poconos. My mother's cousin, who is a Wieme descendant, said she would come in with me. Her grandmother was Victorine Tillman, my grandfather's sister , who married Peter Wieme. Joseph's wife, Victorine was named after her.
What time will you be arriving at the hotel on the 29th? What do you plan for that day? Dinner with us? Or would the next day be better to meet.? Let me know.
I am really looking forward to meeting you. This has been so exciting finding you and this info. I was so busy this weekend that I did not get to contact the computer people.
