Hello-
I'm looking for information about Joseph & Henrietta (Miller) Hipkins who moved to La Grange, MO and built a house there in 1856/57 which we are restoring and recently had added to the National Historic Register. I'm currently researching the Hipkins family as well as others who lived in the house. A local historical account stated that Joseph built the house for "Aunt Kitty Robinson" who came from Kentucky with 60 slaves and a trunk of gold. Any info about who "Aunt Kitty" was or the Hipkins family would be appreciated.
