Tentatively I would suggest that Vander's parents are Needham and Amanda Mary (Rounds) Northup, 3rd. Needham the 3rd was born in Yates Co., New York, and apparently moved with his large family to Kent Co., Michigan after 1851. A close accounting of the census records for Yates Co., New York, particularly for Potter may help you. Best regards, Clyde :-)
