Della Hill's
School Souvenir

Sent by
Annette O'Brien <aobrien1@swbell.net>



Della Hill died in 1913 of a heart condition at age 21. She was engaged to a local young man (name?) when she died and
was buried in her wedding dress. Her grave in Bethel Cemetery in Katemcy/Camp Air is not marked,
but I have an aunt who knows which grave is likely Della's.

Della was a sister to my great grandmother.

Della Hill was a teacher in the area. I assume at Peter's Prairie, but do not know for sure
