Hi!
I have an unusual question. I'm wondering if anyone has every heard
the name Permin (or Perman)? It's an ancestor's middle name, but I'm
wondering if the name may have been a family name. The ancestor
lived in Wayne County and also in Iowa, so I thought I'd just put
this out there and see if anyone has heard the name before.
While I'm at it, I am seeking information on Alva Permin Jarvis, b.
1865, Iowa or Indiana. Parents William Jarvis (born Wayne County,
IN) and Ann Rebecca (Taylor). Alva had a brother, Charles Leander
Jarvis, b. 1857 and a sister, Sarah Elizabeth Jarvis, b. c1855. Also
seeking information on Ann Rebecca Taylor and her family,especially
her father, John B. Taylor. (Ann Rebecca had at least two brothers,
Isaac Taylor and Thomas J. Taylor.)
The Jarvis family lived in the Richmond area for a long time. I am
wondering how I could go about trying to locate an obituary for
William Jarvis, who died April 1, 1860. Does anyone know if anyplace
has old newspapers where I could possibly get someone to look for an
obituary? I assume that Richmond had a newspaper in 1860!
Thanks very much!
