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.

Subject: [INDEKALB-L] RE: LEWIS TIFFANY
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

Any information anyone may have about LEWIS TIFFANY'S birthplace, (Town or
County) possible siblings, parent's names, newspaper articles including
obituaries or knowledge of any descendants not mentioned here would be
greatly
appreciated so I can continue tracing my family's history. Thank
you very
much.
