[Per Judith Dick Plumley: ] When a young girl, she sang in the Metropolitan Opera chorus. She was also sent to a school for wayward girls in Burlington, VT.

[Per Philip D. Bogdonoff, Jr.:] Helen Hill was raised by her uncle Edwin Hill and his wife May.

She used to teach piano.

She and Palmer lived in 17 houses in 16 years in the same town, Long Meadow (near Springfield, MA?).

Spent her holidays with Aunt May (Edwin Hill's wife).

[Per Jillaine Smith:] Before her death, she mailed her engagement ring to her grandson, Philip Bogdonoff, III, with which Philip proposed to Jillaine Smith in the summer of 1994. Jillaine wears it to this day.
