My name is BLAINE A. TIFFANY..and I am trying to track my TIFFANY family lineage. However, my research has unfortunately stopped with my gg-grandfather, LEWIS TIFFANY, who was born somewhere in New York in 1812. (I have also seen the years 1806 and 1811 as a birthdate, but predominantly 1812.) Never any town, county or names of parents mentioned. I know my gg-grandfather married OLIVE OVIATT in Portage County, OH...9Dec1835 married and migrated to DeKalb County, Newville Township some time in the latter 1830's to early 1840's with his wife OLIVE and two children JULIA E. and LEWIS R. TIFFANY. They settled in this area and lived out the rest of their lives raising seven additional children: -HARRIET M. -RHODA ANN -LORETTA -MARY -HANDFORD E. -CHARLES EUGENE -HELEN VIOLA Here are some additional miscellaneous facts that I know about this family: MOTHER & FATHER -LEWIS TIFFANY-b1812 New York d-21October1878 Newville, Indiana (Farmer and early settler of DeKalb County-Settled 17Feb1842) -OLIVE (OVIATT) TIFFANY b-1818 Hudson (Summit) OH d-13Feb1873 Newville, Indiana CHILDREN -JULIA E. b abt.-1837 Ohio d-Unknown -LEWIS R.

Blaine: Hanford E. Tiffany (b:1850) married Clara A. Rodarmer, (b:1853) 12 October 1873, DeKalb County, Indiana. Clara is a daughter of William H. & Leah (Caldwell) Rodarmer of Newville, DeKalb County, Indiana. Leah is a sister of my gg grandfather, Benjamin Caldwell and they (with others) are children of Timothy & Martha M. (Swords) Caldwell of Newville, Indiana. I am interested in knowing more about the Caldwell, Rodarmer, Hoffstodt, Wile, Totten, Tiffany, and associated families, primarily forward from 1800. Did Hanford & Clara reside for a while in or near Fremont, Newaygo County, Michigan? In our research, we find reference to a Tiffany family there. Norman C. Caldwell, P.S. 738 N.
