1864 Sept. 19, Cedar Villa, Hamilton Co., OH. Ada Wyckoff wrote her cousin Tighlman Jones: "I received a letter from Griffin Saturday evening. He wanted us to meet he and Angeline and his little girl in Cincinnati tomorrow evening. Griffin is going to finish off our house for us. I don't know how long they will be here. . . . I am sadly dissappointed. I expected Cousin Jane Love to come with Griffin. I am really disappointed. I do love her so. She seems as near as a sister."
