died on 3 Oct 1949 at the age of 68
death certificate number 20965
dau of Hoyt Sherman McComb & Emma (Howe) McComb
who were married 23 Sept 1878 at New York City
Hoyt b. 14 May 1855 d. 11 Apr 1899 Gallipolis, Ohio
Emma b. Boston, Mass. d. 13 Dec 1909 at New York
paternal grandparents were:
Robert McComb & Amelia (Sherman) McComb who m. 2 Oct 1832 at Lancaster, Ohio
Amelia was the sister of Civil War Union Major General William Tecumseh Sherman and of US Senator, Presidential Cabinet Secretary John Sherman. John's estate was valued at $2,500,000 (2.5 million) when he died in 1900; Julia Huggins and her father, Hoyt McComb, are named in John's estate receiving $2,500 and $5,000 respectively.
"Miss Julia Huggins, for several years a familiar visitor in the summer months, has arrived at the Wayside Inn [c.2015 known as the Bird's Nest Bed and Breakfast], where she hopes to recover her health following a severe illness."
[published 4 Aug 1936 Greenfield Recorder-Gazette, Buckland news section]
"Miss Julia Huggins, who has spent 11 weeks at Wayside Inn, returned Friday with her friend, Miss Mardaga, to New York City."
[Miss Mardaga may be Berthe Mardaga, a Belgian-born French language teacher who was the same age as Julia and also a single woman living on the upper west side of Manhattan.]
[published 25 Sept 1937 Greenfield Recorder-Gazette, Buckland news section]
Julia was single, a music teacher, living in Manhattan, N.Y. in the 1930 and 1940 U.S.Censuses. She is mentioned in Washington, D.C. newspapers 1918 to 1920 as a pianist playing at several different events.
"Julia Huggins, also known as Julia McComb, also known as Julia McComb Huggins, deceased...who was at the time of her death a resident of 611 West 137th Street, the County of New York...published for David H Bodell, alternative executor, to prove a will dated 5 Feb 1949..."
[P325, 1950 - CITATION - a call for heirs to step forward in legal notice that appeared in the Irish-American Advocate, a New York City newspaper, dated 11 March 1950]
Surrogate's Court and search for Miss Julia McComb Huggins April 2016 found no will or administration papers indexed for her (checked both McComb and Huggins surnames) in New York County/Manhattan. This is odd, as she lived here for years and years, and one might imagine she had quite a personal estate.
Julia McComb Huggins is found on page 321 of Sherman Genealogy Including Families of Essex, Suffolk and Norfolk, England By Thomas Townsend Sherman, publisher T. A. Wright, 1920, avail on google books. From the Sherman Genealogy book:
"Julia McComb, b. at New York City, Sept 13, 1881. Lives with her aunt, Mrs Huggins and now is Julia Huggins, unm."
The mentioned aunt is on page 321:
"Julia Willock McComb, b. Nov. 18, 1836, m. 1) at Mansfield, Oct 28, 1863, Joshua Davis, b. at Columbus, Ohio; died there 1871. She m. 2) at Cincinnati, Ohio, Charles Edward Huggins, son of William Beers and Hamer Sarah (Clarkson) Huggins, b. at Glasgow, Scotland, Nov. 8, 1848; d. at Portland, Ore, Feb 15, 1892. She d. at Washington, D.C., Aug 20, 1918. No issue. Her niece, Julia McComb, daughter of Hoyt Sherman McComb, lived with her for many years and is known as Julia Huggins."
"A will dated January 4, 1904, leaves the estate of Mrs. Julia McComb HUGGINS, of 1709 P street, northwest, to Miss Julia McComb HUGGINS, daughter of a deceased brother whom Mrs. HUGGINS adopted. Miss HUGGINS is made the sole legatee of the estate, and all the property is placed in trust."
