My great-grandmother, Mary Leona Perkins, married Will Veach and they moved around the country, including a homestead in Montana. Will and his brother, J. D. went bear hunting in Colorado and helped to establish the turkey farming industry in that state. Imagine my surprise in finding Veach families in southern Illinois. Now Will was only my step-great-grandfather and no blood relation, but my grandmother knew him only as her dad. I have a few Veach pictures - including one of Ankah Mellet. I know that the relationship is distant, but there is VEACH information in a book at the library in Vienna. You may contact the librarian there if you need more information.
