ArchivesRe: Possible meanings of Wilhne?
in reply to a message by Wilhne
This is just a guess, but it could be an abbreviated form of Wilhelmine (pronounced just like Wilhelmina).
It was not uncommon back then, at least in England and the U.S., to abbreviate names like Jos. for Joseph, Thos. for Thomas, etc.
