Vernon Crofoot .... Vernon Crofoot (perhaps with a middle name or nickname of something like Parnum or Painum) is one of my ancestors!! My Vernon Crofoot was born in the very early 1800's ... 1804-1806 it is believed. He died from suicide in Mishawaka, St.Joseph, Indiana (near the age of 55 years old) on or near March 16, 1859. I have a copy of the newspaper obituary that explains about his death. Vernon Crofoot was married on Sept. 30, 1827 in Painesville, Geauga, Ohio to Diantha Fuller. Together they had SEVEN children .... 1. Gould C. Crofoot b. 1828, OH; married Elizabeth Norwood 2. Henry Crofoot b.7/8/1830, OH; married Nancy Pruner 3. George Crofoot b. 1832, OH; married Rebecca Williams 4. Selina J. Crofoot b.10/27/1834, OH; married Isaac Woodward Crofoot (a cousin, I believe) 5.
