I will lay awake tonight wondering what my
Bloomingdale school teacher, Miss Hetrick,
(or maybe it was Franklin School, where grades
7 began for us kids back in the district). I have
some foggy memories of her, but when I think of
her name, it seems she was instrumental in
coordinating spring festivals and always lost
her voice just before opening night at the school,
something she warned all of us students would
happen. this is no real help, something I just
had to get out to you. She was the only person
I ever met with that surname, I feel confident
she is somewhat related to the family you are
trying to locate.

Subject: [INALLEN-L] Dr. Jacob HETRICK
Jacob HETRICK was b. ABT. 1847 PA. He and wife Mary Elizabeth
PLIKERT and
daughters lived in Middlepoint, Van Wert Co., Ohio in 1876. They
operated a
drug store in Middlepoint at that time and Jacob was also attending lectures
at the Ft. Wayne Medical College. Jacob became a physician and the family
moved to Ft. Wayne. Jacob and Mary Elizabeth possibly divorced. Their two
daughters were Ettie Julia Hetrick married John NEUFER 20 May 1891 and
Mintie Minerva married Elmer ROBINSON 20 Oct. 1892.
Jacob praticed medicine in or around Ft. Wayne. Any information regarding
this
family would be helpful. Especially Jacob's birth and death date and
place of birth in PA.
Thanks for your consideration.
