James Mannine TANNER (1824-1867) married Harriet Maria BARNETT (1832-1902); they had three children: Andrew W. (probably names after Capt. Andrew WINELAND), Charles J., & James M. TANNER. Harriet Maria BARNETT was the daughter of Thomas BARNETT (1800-1866) & Elvira IVERS (1808-1848), who also had three other children: Elvira, Frances F., & James BARNETT. Thomas BANETT & my great-great-great grandfather James Tetrothic IVERS were business partners in St Louis, MO. Thomas's wife Elvira was one of James T. IVERS's children. Another daughter Margaret (1814-1902) married Capt. Andrew WINELAND (of steamboat fame). A third child, my great-great grandfather Jackson IVERS (1817-1866) was a riverboat captain as well. There is a crypt of the IVERS family shared with a HUMPHREYS family in Bellefontaine Cemetery, though I haven't been able to determine the connection my ancestors had with Judge James HUMPHREYS' relations. I also have a fascinating story concerning Capt. Wineland's trip north on the Platte River into Wyoming.

Jean, Would it be possible to check in your book and see if it lists Louis Elliott? He was born about 1805 in VA and moved to Jerseyville, IL. He had a son named David Elliott that married a Nancy Reddish. Louis is my g,g,g, grandfather. Thanks, Sue in Houma, La.
