| 657 | Huldah may be the Huldah T. Hulse who accused the master of the ship Indiana of rape on a voyage from New York City to Bellport, NY 19-22 May 1840. While the unnamed master was convicted in Suffolk County Court, his indictment was subsequently "quashed" on appeal. See Nicholas Hill. | Hulse, Huldah T. ^ (I8392)

| 664 | I think it likely that the woman known as "Mrs. Florence Seeley, " "Lucile Seeley, " and "Florence S. Smith" are the same person, the various names arising from the use of different stage, professional, and legal names at different times. Seeley seems to have been the preferred public name used by her husband, William R. Seeley, although his birth surname was Smith. Therefore, in a legal setting such as her appearance in court, she was no doubt obliged to use Smith as her surname. In her court appearance, she was in "widow weeds;" William R. Seeley had died a little more than a year earlier. References to her professional career as a juggler called her "Miss Rhodesia" or "Ma'mselle Florrie Rhodesia." When her marriage to William R. Seeley was first reported, a name was not given, although she was referred to as "Miss Rhodesia;" "Florrie" is a nickname for Florence. Early in her career, she used the name "La Belle Florence." In William R. Seeley's obituary, she was named "Lucille" —Lucille being either sloppy reporting, or perhaps a professional name she was using at the time, although this is speculation without specific foundation. In the 1930 census, she was recorded as Florence Seeley Smith. | Seeley, Florence (I12074)

| 665 | Ida familial relations are ambiguous. From their gravestone, Ida is inferred to be a wife of Frank O. Ailo. However, the census records indicate that Frank's wife was Armanda. While Armanda of the censuses has birth dates mostly consistent with Ida's as found on her gravestone, they are not always identical. Ida and Armanda therefore could be separate people. In Frank's 1954 obituary, Aune Johnson is identified as Frank's step daughter. By the time of the notorious murders of 1964, 10 years after Frank's death, Aune is identified as Mrs. Ida Koski's daughter, and Toivo Johnson as her son-in-law. | Koski, Ida (I16746)

| 668 | In December 1778, General George Washington's chief of intelligence—and Culper Ring spymaster Major Benjamin Tallmadge—recruited Jonas Hawkins as a clandestine courier to bring messages to Setauket from New York City, where the group's leader, Abraham Woodhull was gathering information. From there, the coded correspondence could be relatively easily forwarded to Tallmadge.[3] At first, the ring employed just Hawkins in the role, but by early summer, Roe had joined the group as an alternate rider, who would take messages the 55 miles (89 km) between the group's two major centers of operation, Setauket, New York, and New York City.[1] At the time, both cities were occupied by the British.Work as spy [edit] Roe and Hawkins passed the messages from New York City to operative Caleb Brewster on Long Island.[3] Brewster would take them across the Sound to Tallmadge at Fairfield, Connecticut. From there, Tallmadge forwarded the messages to Washington.[4] Roe served the Culper spy ring as a courier by secretly relaying its messages beginning in early 1779. He claimed to be conducting business as a merchant in order to avoid suspicion and pass through the British checkpoints.[3] Roe became the sole dispatch carrier for the ring after July 1779, when Tallmadge gave Roe–but not Hawkins–a code number in his code index.[3] Hawkins increasing paranoia had led him to abandon the mission at that time.[3]In historical records | Tallmadge, Benjamin (I1454)
