Dear h long
I had posted my query so long ago that I had forgotten about it. So good
to hear
from someone who knows more about the man I call John Sr. He is my
second great grandfather. Malinda Banta was his eldest child and is my
first great grandaunt, was married to Joseph Myers on 11/27/1851 and died 6
Jul 1900 in Collamer, ID. The other John Banta [ I call John Jr.] is likely
#4090 in the TM Banta geneaology and is 1/2 brother to Barbara ALICE
#4096[Malinda was her 1/2 sister]. ALICE was named, it seems for John Sr.'s
first wife, BARBARA Tanner who died in 1858, but her mother was Margaret
Shepard who John Sr. married in 1864.
I would be very interested in finding out more about your line and if it
would not
be too much trouble, to get a copy of the two daguerrotype pix
(good copies can be printed easily) of John. I would certainly be most happy
to pay for them. Also anything more in the way of info about the two Johns.
I have quite a bit on
the early days of John Sr. but virtually nothing after about 1840.
