Does anyone descend from John Valentine Vanderpool (1815-1891) and Mary Pauline "Polly" VAUGHN (VON)(1826-1897)? I'm trying to prove/disprove the story about 3 of their daughters marrying the same man -- William GEROMINI in and around Maries County, Missouri. If anyone has a copy of marriages between Vanderpool women and William GEROMINI, please contact me. I mean real copies -- not from compiled/published/online material, which I already have.
These marriages supposedly took place in the 1860s and 1870s.

Another problem with John Valentine Vanderpool's family is with two purported children -- Mary E. (born ca 1871) and James M. (born ca 1877). They are listed as daughter and son with John V. Vanderpool and Polly in the 1880, Texas County, Missouri enumeration. I question this because of Polly's age -- she would have been about 46 and 54 years of age when these children were born --I think they are grandchildren, but can't place them. Appreciate any help on this.

Another fascinating Vanderpool fellow is William Tecumseh -- born 1865 in Caldwell County, MO, the son of Aden Carver Vanderpool and Caroline E. OWEN. William went to Alaska by 1900 and raised a large family there by a native woman. However, I've also discovered that William earlier had married a woman (Mary Elizabeth "Lizzie" VINCENT) in Washington state (about 1892) and had two children by her. Those children were: Inez F. VANDERPOOL, born in 1893 in WA (nothing more on her) and Grover W. VANDERPOOL, born in 1896 in WA. He died in Seattle in 1958. Are there any descendants of these children out there that will share information?

Thanks.
