This is the hotel that Mr. James Herbert Young
had around 1910-20.
Especially interesting to us is this card (postmarked 21 Mar 1918) was
sent by HMB to:
Mr. and Mrs. L. A. Butler, 14 Summit Ave., Mansfield, Mass.
She wrote:
Cincinnati, March 21.
Dear Sis & Bro.
We are a bit upset for Herbert is planning to go across on one of
those food boats out of Boston, as stewart. So do not be surprised if he
walks in on you if he has time. With love, Nellie
I had thought she was talking about brother Herbert but now I am
wondering if she is talking about James Herbert Young! Brother Herbert was
married to Persis True in 1883. I doubt he would leave his family?
According to Aunt Helen, Mr. Young "disappeared" around 1920.
I do not know what HMB called Mr. Young, but I have seen he went by J.
Herbert Young. Do you?
