Biography

Ella was born in 1867. Her parents are unknown and her surname may have been Held, rather than Hild. Ella married Solomon Wiseman in 1886. ^[1] She passed away in 1890. While the cited genealogy gives her name as Held, the sole primary document located--the death certificate of her daughter Ethel--gives her name as Hild. ^[2] The source of the information was Ethel's half-sister Lillian Wiseman. While Ella has not been located on the census, documents pertaining to another Hild family in the county sees the spelling go back and forth between Hild and Held. Another genealogy suggests a possible spelling of "Hilt" but gives no source. ^[3]
