Dear Steve, Is Orrie Tanner who lived in Miami in your data base? I know he was a cousin of my grandmother, Lila Mary Tanner m. Frank Willard Vernon, who was born in Tampa in 1888. She was the daughter of William Charles Tanner and Mary O. Robles. Other children of William Charles were Stella m. Donald McIntyre, Joseph Alfred, Concheta m. Claude Hayman and Ethel who died at age 8. I know Orrie had a brother Harry who was born in Indiana and I think Orrie was also. Orrie had a daughter, Gladys who married a Hill and a couple of sons. There was also a Tanner who was a ball player who was related but I don't recall his name. I hope this rings some bells. Our Tanner family was in NC in 1850 then in Indiana from ?-1878-84. Then they moved to FL. William Charles' father was Alfred. Alfred's spouse was Elizabeth ? Alfred is buried in Woodlawn Cemetery, Tampa, FL. Where was he between 1850-1888 when he died? We know there was a daughter, Eliza Jane who married William Wilkerson and is buried in Cortland, Indiana. We think there were other sisters also . We also know there are cousins who lived in Indian until the 1950-60's who my grandmother corresponded with. Names (married) were Mabel Judd and Ruby Hill. Ruby and Mabel were cousins, not sisters.
