If Eliza's middle or first name is Josephine, it all fits and here is a marriage record you need to check out, then: Josephine Glispin John Fanning 10 Dec 1871 Donna ----- Original Message ----- From: "Stu and Priscilla Fanning" <sfpf4@yahoo.com> To: <RIPROVID-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Monday, December 27, 2004 2:56 PM Subject: Re: [RIPROVID] Fanning Family - Providence, RI - Early 1900's until now > Hi Donna, > Thanks for continuing to look for my Fannings! > Hmmm. The John H birthday is the same month as the 1900 census. I wonder if Eliza's middle name was Josephine??? Her middle initial is J. > Charlotte's birth info works with the 1880 census -- interesting that they list Charlotte first when she is younger than Daniel. And where is Emma? And Vincent? Perhaps they died young. Just thinking as I type. > I am wondering about the marriage record for John Fanning and Eliza T. Ryan. Later she goes by J....or could the T look like a J or the other way around? The date is also after half the kids are born. (Now I realize that this could/does happen!!) Just an observation. > I sent the RI archives an e-mail. Haven't heard from them yet. All of these names and dates give me more to ask for. Good! Thank you. > Sorry about your sleep last night, but you are right -- lucky for me! I wondered how that happened that I had nothing before bed and suddenly in the morning a treasure trove of information...when you are the same time zone as I am! > Priscilla > > > Donna Rhyne <djfrnc@nc.rr.com> wrote: > You're very welcome--I had a hard time sleeping last night--lucky for you I > was on the computer for a while until I got tired! > > Looked for a birth record for Charlotte and John, but these don't make sense > with everything else, unless someone made an error in recording the mother's > name... or these are totally different people: > Charlotte Fanning John Fanning Josephine Fanning 10 Jul 1873 > John H Fanning John H Fanning Josephine Fanning 08 Jan 1887 > > Happy New Year, too! > > Donna > > __________________________________________________ > Do You Yahoo!? > Tired of spam?
