==Dorothy Emma Howell== <table><tr><td>http://media3.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/photo/2007/06/02/PH2007060201324.jpg</td><td> Dorothy Emma Howell was born in or around Chicago, Cook County, [[Illinois]] in June, 1919, the daughter of [[#Edwin John Howell, Jr|Edwin John Howell]] and his wife [[#Della Murray|Della Murray]]. Her parents divorced ([http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/06/02/AR2007060201257.html this article] states in 1920, while [http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2007/09/23/politics/washingtonpost/main3288950.shtml this one] states 1927), and Della married secondly in 1933 to a Chicago businessman Max Rosenburg. It was perhaps about this time that Dorothy and her younger sister, Isabelle (b. 1924) went to live with their grandparents in the Los Angeles area. Wikipedia states that "... through her years in high school, she lived with her paternal grandparents in the Los Angeles suburb of Alhambra, California." Another article however states that she moved out of her grandparents home when she was 14 to become a nanny, and through her high school years, she lived in her own apartment. Wikipedia goes on to say that "after graduating from Alhambra High School in 1937, she moved to Chicago where she married Hugh Ellsworth Rodham in 1942." </td></tr></table> Dorothy's Wikipedia article states that Dorothy moved back to Chicago "...for a failed reunion with her mother." Another article states that her mother wanted her to return to Chicago, but to work as her housekeeper. Dorothy met Hugh Rodham in 1937 when she applied for a secretarial job at the Columbia Lace Company, where he sold curtains as a traveling salesman. It wasn't until four or five years later that he and Dorothy married, probably in or near Chicago. They were subsequently to have three children. Hillary was born in a hospital in Chicago, the family initially living in that city. However when Hillary was three, the family moved to the Chicago suburb of Park Ridge, Illinois. [http://www.hillary-rodham-clinton.org/family.html This article] states they moved to Little Rock, Pulaski County, Arkansas in 1987, "...to be closer to their daughter." When her husband died, an article in the ''News Record'' of North Hills, Pennsylvania which was mainly about Hillary, reprinted this quote from Dorothy:<blockquote> "There must have been 40 or 50 children within a four-block radius of our house and within four years of Hillary's age," the first lady's mother, Dorothy Rodham, told The Washington Post in January. "They were all together, all the time, a big extended family. There were more boys than girls, lot of playing and competition."</blockquote> She was mentioned, in May 2004 [http://www.ancestry.com/search/obit/viewbody.aspx?db=web-obituary&pid=3224893&kw=&cpp=20040514%5c20040513%5c82%5c29%5c38%5c8229386733410770107&bhr=http%3a%2f%2fwww.suntimes.com%2foutput%2fsneed%2fcst-nws-sneed12.html#8229386733411339568 here], when she went out with her daughter and granddaughter. In the article, [http://www.wargs.com/political/rodham.html "Hillary Rodham Clinton"], ancestry research by William Addams Reitwiesner, he mentions that she was living in 2006 in Washington, D.C.
