Sindeldecker was also my wife's 3d great grandmother. I believe that she appears in the 1910 census for Belmont County, Ohio, Mead Township, sheet 16B, in the household of James Vanaman (may be indexed as "Venman") and wife Cora [Cora Bell Nixon Vanaman (1866-1952)]. Nancy is listed as Nancy "Singledecker" age 64, a widow, born in Ohio, who bore 7 children of whom 6 were surviving, and as the mother-in-law of James Venman/Vanaman. This shows that Nancy Singledecker/Sindeldecker was the mother of Cora Bell Nixon Vanaman. You will note that the information particularly on the number of children and surviving children is identical to that reported in the 1900 census for Wetzel County, WVA that you have referenced in your 2002 post below. I think that Nancy Sindeldecker was born in 1846, not 1851, as she is listed in the 1860 census of Monroe County, Ohio, in the household of Edward Nixon and wife Margaret,! as being age 14, and in the 1910 census as age 64. I think Edward Nixon (born about 1800 in Pennsylvania) and his wife Margaret were Nancy's parents. Do you know the names of Nancy Sindeldecker's other six children? I also wonder whether you know who the father of Nancy's daughter Cora, my wife's supposed ancestor, was? Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
