listing for her in the 1929 city directory nor any marriage record to
show that she remarried. She may have moved in with one of her married
children. Lillie C. Amelung, Widow of John Amelung, is listed in the 1927
and 1928 City Directories. She does not show up after 1928 nor before
1927. Lillie was not a Widow as John Amelung did not pass away until
1966.

it was in 1922 and herself and Hattie were left behind with their father.

Louis with her older children. By 1927 they lived at 5832 S. Compton

C. Amelung although he was actually still living.  In 1936, Lillie is
listed on Hattie's death certificate as Lillie Hamlin of 3836A Ohio
Street. This means that sometime between 1929 and 1936 she remarried.
Her second marriage was to William A. Hamil in St. Louis. William was
born on January 27, 1873 to John and Mary Hamil. William died on May 19,
