Hillmanns 54 1937 Colorado and New Mexico

THE HILLMANNS OF BROOKLYN

CHAPTER 54

1937

Colorado and New Mexico

It's the Summer of 1937.  Marian Hillmann is living in Reno, Nevada for at least six weeks to establish residency to get a quickie divorce.  Marian made the best of her time in Nevada, by taking side trips.  Here she is in Colorado with her friend, Mary Behrens.  I don't know if Mary came with her to Nevada or if she met Mary there.



When I see a place in the Hillmann's albums I like to look it up and see if it is still there.


with Del Fedderman. If you Google "Del Fedderman" you learn he won a table tennis tournament in Denver in September 1938, about 13 months after this picture was taken.

Now we travel on to New Mexico


and we're back to eliminated people, which makes me think Del Fedderman was an okay guy

It's time for Marian to go home, a newly-single woman, with a ticking biological clock and thoughts of becoming an old maid. Hillmanns albums come out on Tuesdays. Join us next week when the Hillmanns leave Brooklyn for good.
