Jack,
I can't attach the articles from the New Haven Register because of the extension. Email me at
inola82@yahoo.com and I’ll send them along.
I'm using America's Genealogy Bank and they have a few years of the NH Register indexed.
I couldn't find an obituary, but I do have some articles mentioning Hannah D. Hume and her children,
