From a letter dated 9 JUN 1958, written by Nellie Grace McConnell Hoebeke to George Maynard Chute, Jr.:
"I wish to inquire if your mother was Grace Hamilton Chute, daughter of William Hamilton of Jackson. The Maynard I recall she married was in Toledo or Cleveland & a soap manufacturer. "Aunt" Nellie Aikens married Grace's widowed father. They were a fine family. When I was 16 or 17 I often visited there in Jackson. We just called Nellie Hamilton "aunt", she was my mother's first cousin & dearly loved. I was named for her. I loved Grace dearly, too."
