Posted on: Clay County, In Query Forum Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/In/Clay/1055 Surname: Vandevender, Silvers, Wilson, Summers, McAshlan, Helton ------------------------- Hi Sue, I just sent you an email. We hit on three names. On my fathers side, Alfred Vandevender was married to Elizabeth Hedge. Later on, Elizabeth married John C. Helton who also had children of his own. Elizabeth's daughter, Sarah J. Vandevender later married one of John C. Helton's sons, Shernman A. Helton. Kind of a Brady Bunch crossover. My father's mother was Hazel Mae Silvers. Her parents were Alonzo (Lonnie) Silvers and Mary Belle Summers. This side of the family was from around Randolph County Indiana but I believe have ties back to Clay County as well.
