My grandfather was Will Hickok, so it was exciting to see this reference to him. And are you by any chance related to the Rich family of Delaware County? Best Wishes Carolyn McPherson now of Charlottesville VA Dear Mr. Rich:

He and his wife Nancy lived in Hobart for many many years. I am trying to find out more about them. They had a son, Harry and daughter Bessie. Bessie was a dress maker. According to the census in 1910, it said Nancy had 5 children, but only two living. What cemeteries are near there? I can't find any online. Any information would be appreciated Thanks Tammy from Idaho does anyone remember Worth Vrooman’s shoe shop? He and his wife Nancy lived in Hobart for many many years.

I remember going to his funeral and his casket was filled with teddy bears. Our SKCS Class of 1960 designated our yearbook to him and another classmate who died of a brain tumor in 7th grade.
