Looking for any information on one Eli A Vanniman. Spelling may be off a little. I have found different spellings for this last name. He was born in Ohio around 1877. He had a wife named Emma. They had daughter named Mary Elizabeth. If you have any information I would be grateful. Thanks

Hello,

I am descended from Ray Vaniman, the only son of Calvin Vanniman. Calvin was the son of Benjamin Vanniman and Sophia Hussey. My great-grandfather, Ray was a minor when his father died, and his parents were divorced, so he never received anything of his father's. Apparently, his belongings were divided among among his brothers and sisters and their children. Our family has absolutely no keepsakes from the Vanniman family. I'm hoping that whatever families recieved Calvin's personal belongings never lost them. If any Vanniman descendants have any items of Calvin's or his parents, I would be very, very happy to purchase items or reimburse for photo copies.

My grandmother was Ray's only child and he died in his early 20's, so we don't even have pictures of him. We are desperate to know what these people looked like, etc. Since Calvin was well off, he must have had photos of some type.

Ok that is weird because i used to live in Ft. Lauderdale, and my grandmother did too, but she was buried in Tennessee.

Does anyone know Althea Vaniman, or at least, who she was?

Jesse W Vaniman

Reverie169 — 2005-03-24 21:56:30Z

I'm looking for verification of parents & siblings of Jesse W Vaniman b: 1871, Virden, Macoupin Co., Illinois, married 1st wife Albertia J Miller of McPherson KS, m: Sept 21, 1893, probably in McPherson, Kansas. Son of Jesse Vaniman & Albertia Miller was Royal B Vaniman, b: April 14, 1895 d: April 1, 1914. Jesse Vaniman & 2nd wife & subsequant children & Royal Vaniman show up in the 1910 Census in Otero, Colorado. I'm confused as to who is Jesse W Vaniman's parents: Daniel Vaniman from Ohio and Mariah Kimmel or Elizabeth Stutsman? Can anyone shed some light on this family group for me?

OUTSTANDING! I have photos of all the Miller's and would love to have a copy this photo. Please contact me for photo sharing at Reverie@nwlink.com

The names listed on your photo are indeed correct associations for this family. I have photos of a very young Royal Vaniman, his mother, aunts & uncles on the Miller side.

Do you have more dates & photos of Royal Vaniman, Paul Miller, and Lucille Miller Ferris ???? I can provide much info on the Miller side.

This is VERY exciting !

Hello,
This is amazing. I am searching the internet to prepare a lesson plan for my history class. I am using old photos from my husband's family. Writing on the back of one picture containing his grandmother are names of others in the photo. The tallest and I assume oldest in the photo says "cousins Royal Vaniman deceased 1915." He is the cousin of Paul Miller deceased 1947, Lucille Miller Ferris who died in the 70s, and Jack Miller. Does that help?

Royal Vaniman

Reverie169 — 2004-05-06 03:57:19Z

oops,,, Royal I Vaniman shows up in the "1920" Census in Kansas, NOT the 1880. Either way, Does anyone know Royal I Vaniman ?????

Royal Vaniman descendants

Reverie169 — 2004-05-05 15:11:32Z

I'm looking for children/descendants of Royal I Vaniman born 1850/1851 in Wisconsin, parents from Ohio & Virginia respectively. Royal Vaniman shows up in the 1880 Census, age 69, in the city of Lebanon, Oak Twp, Smith Co, Kansas.

Verna B. Vaniman buried in Florida

I was in the EVERGREEN CEMETERY
in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, Broward County,
and I wrote down this information.
This is what the white headstone read;

VERNA B. VANIMAN

(my note: I hope this information will help someone.)

You may be tied in with my husband's family. We just had a family reunion and I believe I heard the name Ira Clinton Vanniman or something similar. One group was from Ohio and spell it Van Niman and we're from Michigan and spell it Vanniman. Email me at kndvanniman@chartermi.net and I'll try to help you with this.
