The Hillmanns of Brooklyn
Chapter 25
1926
Hit Single of 1926 was I’m Sitting on Top of the World
In 1926 the Hillmanns were living at the same street address in Brooklyn where Herman lived with his family when his father died in 1905. When Marian was born in 1909, Herman and Rose lived at a different Brooklyn address. We know in 1917 they lived in Essex County, New Jersey. Then in 1920 the census puts them back in Brooklyn, they could have been at the 1905 address, but we know for sure they lived at the 1905 address in 1926, which makes me wonder if that house belonged to Herman's mother all along?
Marian's close friend, Helen. The next Hillmanns album is coming out next Tuesday where we'll meet Marian's first serious boyfriend, Billie Staab
