That is correct; I replaced the fair-use image with a free image this week. The non-free image should be deleted. Penny Richards (talk) 15:29, 30 August 2024 (UTC)

Mabel Evelyn Elliott

I did some additions to the Mabel Evelyn Elliott page. What an interesting person. She lived in West Palm Beach which is about 8 miles from me. Flahistory (talk) 16:25, 24 September 2024 (UTC)

Education of Hubertina D. Hogan

Thanks for creating the article for Hubertina D. Hogan. The article as you created it says that "She graduated from Cathedral High School in Trenton in 1943, and from Seton Hill University in 1947." I can't find either school mentioned in the source you added or in a Google search. Am I missing it? Thanks, as always, for your efforts to expand the encyclopedia. Alansohn (talk) 17:16, 9 October 2024 (UTC)

Hi Alansohn! Thanks for checking. I should have been more careful. (This particular article is based on a 2021 draft in my files, decided to give it another go; but that's no excuse.) She was Hubertina Dorothy Clayton until she married in 1967, so that's the name that works for finding the education details. There's a picture of Hubertina Clayton on page 15 of the 1943 yearbook of Cathedral High School in New Jersey, which is available on Ancestry (and maybe elsehwere). As Tina Clayton, she is mentioned in ref #3, the 1952 newspaper clipping about Seton Hill alumnae meeting in Philadelphia. But I must have seen the Seton Hill somewhere else to make that connection. Aha, found it: "Life Lines" The Journal of the American Leather Chemists Association 55(12)(December 1960): 700, via Internet Archive. I'll add that one and the yearbook reference now. Penny Richards (talk) 18:44, 9 October 2024 (UTC)

Thanks for the clarification and adding the details. I regained access to Newspapers.com and I was sure that I'd find something, especially given how uncommon her first name is, but no luck. I'll keep on looking. Alansohn (talk) 19:18, 9 October 2024 (UTC)

I was also hoping "Hubertina" would make it easier to find her in the sources. But a lot of her (really interesting!) work was probably sensitive, maybe even classified, and she might have kept a low social profile because of that. Penny Richards (talk) 20:43, 9 October 2024 (UTC)
