My notes:
There are two seperate Obits for Albert Hillary Bell. His name is also
written as Albert Henry and I have been assured that it is Albert Hillary.
Albert Hillary Bell died Monday, Jan 24th, 1966.
One Obit says "Big Hill" the other say's "Bell's Hill or Bell Hill" . Was to my
understanding that it was called Bell's Hill.
