hello Kelsey
This is very much appreciated !

The boy was born about 1905 to 1907. I believe the parents divorced quite quickly, we have a portrait of the boy and his mother alone, when he is about a year old. Family oral history has it that he may have been adopted by a couple named Brailey, and that his name from that point was Allan Brailey. He is supposed to have lived in North Dakota and Minnesota.

cheers !

Hi Scott:
Don't forget to check out the graves of Sylvia's parents at the Glouster Cemetery (Craddock and Hannah Butler). Then there were her half sister and husband, Hannah and William Morris. And her sister, Charlotte Joseph. I am sure there are others too. There are other Hopes relatives at the Maplewood Cemetery. I have lots of information about her mothers family. If you want to contact me for more information my email address is: sylvia@scspdx.com

Hi Polly - I am Scott Curfman, your Uncle Harrison's third child. I have fond memories of Uncle Kenny and Aunt Billie. My brother, Jim is deceased and my sister Ellen is living in Mom and Dad's house in Mt. Vernon. We're headed to Glouster on Weds. to visit family historic sites and I found your posting as I was doing some pre-trip "homework." Would love to hear from you, my email is scottcurfman@sbcglobal.net

Are you Steve's sister? By the way, Sylvia's maiden name was Butler, not Baker. Her Family owned and operated a couple Hotels in Glouster. Her mother, Hannah Fox Butler, ran the hotels while her Father, Craddock Butler, was a self taught engineer and died in a steam explosion at the Trimble brick factory. Trying to remember all the connections is a strain on the brain! Fortunately, Your Aunt Beth and Uncle Harrison left us quite a bit of info on the Family.

Hope to hear from you - Scott

Howard Scott Curfman here, Sylvia & "Vint" were my grandparents. I am the third child of Harrison Vinton Curfman and Beth Miller Curfman. Sylvia was living in my childhood home in Mt. Vernon (Knox County), Ohio when she died. Going to Glouster Wednesday to check out family history (with my sister Ellen). Will be looking for the Butler Hotel, The General Store, The Trimble Brick Factory, The railroad tunnel and the graves of Levi "Cal", Helen and Hazel at the Glouster Cemetery.

His parents were Levi Curfman (1838 OH - Aug 2 1923) and Susan E Vore (1842-?), His father was Geo Curfman, mother Cerrelia Hensumth both born MD (from his Death information of Ohio).
You also wanted to know about the "A" Curfmans. Arthur Dwight b Oct 14 1896-Jun 22 1974 was the son of Charles and Sylvia. And the Arthur Dwight May 15 1920-Aug 23 1992 was a son of Arthur Dwight above.
How are you related to the Curfmans?

Sylvia,

Do you know who the parents of Charles Vinton Curfman are?

BTW Michael Curfman = Christ Curfman

DanWhipkey — 2009-06-17 16:04:28Z

For those researching the Michael Christopher Curfman line he mostly went by Christ Curfman.

DanWhipkey — 2009-06-17 15:57:56Z

Margaret,

Great info! I don't know how I missed it. I'm curious, did you ever find the land or a Curfman connection?

I looked in my database and there was no Hurst-Curfman connection(that I have) at that time. I have one in the 1930's in Missouri, but thats of no help.

Re: Curfmans

DanWhipkey — 2009-06-17 15:47:03Z

Lynn,

Nathaniel is the son of Rebecca Carman, not Sara Tipple. I'm sure this is a typo, being I know you know this already.

sylviab_1 — 2009-01-07 19:53:48Z

Yes, I have some information on Charles death. It is probably from the Columbus Dispatch.

CURFMAN - Charles Vinton, 51 Mayfair Blvd. Survived by wife, Silvia Mae; 5 sons, Dwight, Lester, Harrison, Loyal and Kenneth; 3 daughters, Mrs. Leona Smart, Mrs. Authorene Orr, Ruthana Wright; 17 grandchildren and 9 great grandchildren. Service will be held Saturday, 2 pm. Schoedinger State-st Chapel, where friends may call from 2 to 4 and 7 to 9 pm Friday. Interment, Sunset.
I typed it as written. It is really Sylvia.
I am related through Sylvia Butler. She was my Great Grandmothers half sister. And her mother was my great great grandmother. And I suspect my grandmother was named for her (and I was named for my grandmother).
If you want any more information, please email me directly @
sylvia@scspdx.com
I do have more data about the kids, and possibly about the Butlers, since I know someone else who was researching them.
Thanks
Sylvia

Hello,
I am trying to find death record of Charles Vinton Curfman,
husband of Sylvia Butler, daughter of Cradick (Caradoc-Welsh)Butler. Cradick is an older brother of my grandfather, Messach Butler. Cradick and Messach(named after his father) were of a large family. The three oldest were born in Wales. Cradick was the eldest and Messach was the youngest, born in Mercer county,PA. There are Butler descendents in western PA. and all over Ohio.
I gather you are connected by the Curfman family. Do you have any info on C.V. Curfman's death? I have Sylvia's death record.

leroy_english — 2008-07-30 10:03:34Z

My grandmother had an older sister in North Dakota. She married a William Curfman, but the marriage was very shortlived. This was in 1905. They also had a son in that year, and we have a portrait taken a year or so later, of her, Pearl J. Sidney Merry, with the little boy.
I am hoping to find out what happened to her son. Perhaps he was taken back by the Curfman family.
If someone has any information about this William Curfman, married on 12 November 1905, in Mandan, I would welcome hearing from them.

Hello List, hope you are still out there. I am still working on the original immigrant, and it is still as clear as mud. I would like to know if any of you have in your files an adult Daniel other than Daniel the Immigrant or his son Daniel, my first proved ancestor, between the years of 1740 - 1780. Please let me kmow if you do.
