Hi, just found this, I think it possible that William Vivian's son William may well have been my husbands great grandfather.
He was a methodist missionay in Sierra Leone at the end of 19th century and died in Lancaster England in 1926.

Re: Vivian family from Cornwall

jakimi108 — 2009-07-27 22:27:33Z

I do not have exact dates for the earliest records but I can trace back to Cornwall. John Vivian was born in Cornwall England. He married Mary Jane Higgins from Ebervale, Wales. They had a son, John Vivian who was born in Nanticoke, PA 10/2/1885. He married Rose Day who was born in Honeypot, PA 8/27/1886.One of their daughters, Catherine Vivian, was my grandmother.

I have a huge data base of Vivians, I started researching only my line but in 55 years of research I have started to add all connected with a Vvian. So, if some of you would please send me your Vivian connection I would be so thankful.
I am trying to tie everyones line into Cornwall and Wales. Wish me luck and please send me your info. My line came to Michigan and then MN and MT. Joan of Michigan

Wyatt--
It's a joy to connect with anyone who knew my grandparents! I can just see that old Plymouth coming down the street! My grandmother used to say that everyone got themselves and their dogs off the streets when they say Granddaddy driving (he really got pretty bad as he got older!)
And the dogs that people "donated" to Granddaddy--he could never say "no". When he finally moved to Oklahoma City to live next door to his youngest daughter Lois June Henley he took at least 6 dogs with him. I remember my cousin Bobby Henley selling puppies from one litter--these were not pure-bred dogs! We laughed at him--but you know, he made people feel that these puppies were special and he was NOT giving them to just any kind of home--guess he got all the business sense in the family--Granddaddy always said he was a doctor BEFORE doctors made any money.

Ohmigosh-- this is great. Maybe you know all these things, but maybe not--Dr. Annadown was not only the doctor for Sulphur in the best sense of the word, but he was also the intellectual guru of the community. His old Plymouth car was filled up in the back seat with books, magazines, etc. which he gave to us-- it was typical for him to pull up beside me when he saw me on the street and say "Wyatt, I have something here you ought to read" and give me something he had in mind for me.

I have lots more stories about him and his life in Sulphur. He was undoubtedly one of the best loved people in the town, and for good reason. I am 75 now, and have been more or less "successful" in several vocations, but Dr. Annadown's influence on me and those I knew was exactly what one would wish. MIddle america at its best.

I will be happy to continue this coversation if you wish. My wife and I (she is also from Sulphur OK ) live in MIlwaukee)

Blessings and peace.

My apologies for any confusion I may have caused with my recent post claiming to have found the parents of my great great grandfather, Joseph Vivian (married to Mary Leverton. It seems the information given me about the birthdate of that Peter Vivian was incorrect. Though it makes sense that Joseph's father could be named Peter, as this was the name of one of Joseph's brothers. I did find a Peter Vivian from St Eval born 05 AUG 1764, Son of Stephen and Ann. Any information on this family is most welcome.

Re: Vivian Family Research

vbenning3 — 2009-04-01 13:19:21Z

Yes Joan, this is my line. I am the daughter of John Henry Vivian and granddaughter of William Vivian who you mention in this message. We have communicated a bit in the past. I can't quite remember if we discovered a link with your line or not. This line of Vivian's came to United States around 1880 and is documented on this site by me. John Vivian son of William Vivian and Betsy Crowle came to US and settled in Wilkes-Barre PA. I have his ship records to show this. I'm not aware of any time that he or any of his relatives spent in the southern states. He built a house in Wilkes-Barre and lived there until he died. Some of his children could have, I have not accounted for all of them. Alexander died in an industrial accident. Most of the daughters stayed in the local area and several were unmarried. His son John Thomas Vivian married Mabel Tucker and they had two boy's, William and Edward. Edward moved to California and William moved to Detroit MI and later to Holly MI (near Flint). Edward only had one child Janet and William had three children, John Henry (my father), William (lives in Rockford IL) and Marilyn (lived in Detroit). I suggest looking farther into the line in Corwall to which my line is linked. There were a lot of son's in the family and historically, the younger boys were funded to leave and find new homes in other countries (some went to Australia). The line is traced back to Devon England also. From what I can tell, the name did go through several changes through the years, starting with Vyvyan (french) and ending in Vivian for us. It is plausable that someone added an "s"along the way.

Re: Vivian of Canada

Did I send you in the last two days, the latest I had on Peter? I have been sending folks stuff and can't remember. Did you lose contact with Gordon T. Vivian, I suspect he is my relative as well.

Their son is my gg grandfather: Joseph Vivian,b. ABT 1801
St Eval, Cornwall; moved to Ontario Canada sometime after 1845; He died at: Thurlow Twp., Belleville, Hastings, Ontario, Canada.

I couldn't reach my Grandmother about her parents, but I talked to my mother and was told her grandfather's name was William Vivian and her grandmother was Julia Elizabeth Cooper. William was from Nanticoke and Julia was from England.
Living 10 miles north of Nanticoke I know it is a relatively small town of 3.5 square miles and I find it interesting that the earlier post mentions William Vivian from Nanticoke.

Re: Joseph & Mary Vivian ancestry

jcharb — 2009-03-08 21:39:34Z

Hi,
I have a Vivian family that i'm researching because of an 1882 letter i found at an antique shop. It is written from a Martha A. V. in Michigan to her cousin Isabella Knight in Ohio.
(Isabella Knights mothers name was Sarah Vivian, and Isabella's brothers middle name is Vivian, so i suspect that Martha's married or maiden name is Vivian)

The 1870 U.S. Ohio census records identify Sarah Vivian Knight as born in England.

In the letter, Martha refers to an Aunt Isabelle.

Untangling this, its possible that Sarah Vivian and Isabelle Vivian would probably be sisters, and may be the ones in your list.

My Sarah Vivian shows to be born around 1830, which is a good match. I have no idea when Isabelle was born, as i havent been able to find her in the U.S. census records yet. Do you by chance have any further information on either the Sarah or Vivian from your family list?

The letter also mentions an "Aunt Mag. Kellie", but that could be from either the Vivian side, or the other parents side.

Hi, Thank you for your detailed response. My Joseph and Mary Vivian family is from St Eval, Cornwall and came over to Ontario Canada sometime after 1846, I think. The story is that 3 Vivian brothers came: Joseph, Richard and Peter.

There where many Vivan's living in Ontario CA during that period. Eventually some of them, mine included, moved to Michigan in the later 1800's. They were raised Wesleyan Methodist in Cornwall. If you can find out where in Cornwall he came from, that would help.

Elizabeth Mary from Connor Downs

bonnier47 — 2008-07-04 13:39:30Z

She is my paternal grandmother and dies in Carn BRea in her 70s.

She may have lived in Treve Lane in Connor Downs or else she was in service there.

She had several babies out of wedlock the first being Eileen who was probably born c 1916. then came Winifred who was given up for adoption at 10 months and went to USA. The followed Kenneth, Douglas Vivian and Joan.

She didn't register all the babies births so it has been really hard to get going!

Any directional clues would be rally welcome

Who are parents of Jenefer VIVIAN marrying 1812 in Camborne?

karenkrich — 2008-03-17 18:31:41Z

Jenefer VIVIAN married Thomas YEATS in 1812 in Camborne, Cornwall. She did not live til the 1851 census so I don't know the parish of her birth. She was not listed as a sojourner or as a widow in her marriage record. IF she was christened in Camborne, it seems that the most likely option is the Jenefer who was christened on 9 Apr 1792 and the child of Francis and Jane.

One of the witnesses to her marriages was a Matthew BENNETTS which I realize is quite a commmon name in Camborne. However, one Matthew BENNETTS married an Elizabeth VIVIAN in 1807 in Camborne. I'm theorizing that perhaps Jenefer is a sister but this is certainly only a guess at this time.

I know that there were at least two Francis and Jane marriages in Camborne. Francis and Jane ROSKROW in 1782 and Francis and Jane ODGERS in 1777.

I have seen some of the online trees listing children for Francis VIVIAN and Jane ROSKROW. These do not elaborate what became of the daughter, Elizabeth, christened in 1785 nor list a Jenefer christened 1792.

Are these children's names derived from a will for Francis who married Jane ROSKROW or family Bible or how did these ones get differentiated from any possible children of Francis VIVIAN and Jane ODGERS and where is the Jenefer, child of Francis and Jane, christened in 1792?

I am aware of online resources and have looked at church records in Camborne and Treslothan on microfilm.

Thanks for your insights,
Karen

Re: Mary Vivian, Camborne

amodeiah — 2008-02-05 13:11:39Z

John and Henry Rosewarne were brothers, sons of Richard and Dorothy of Gwinear. They married sisters, Ann and Mary Vivian daughters of Joseph and Ann. Mary was not the daughter of Charles Vivian and Mary Tippett. That Mary went to Wales with her family and died a spinster about 1852. Mary Vivian Rosewarne was baptized in Illogan, as was her sister Hannah. She died in St. Erth, 1815, and was buried in Camborne. She and Henry had one daughter, Sally Vivian Rosewarne who married John Laity. Her sister Ann died in childbirth, I believe, and John, unlike Henry, remarried. I do not have the death/burial dates for John and his 3rd wife, Elizabeth.
Unfortunately, Vivian's Visitations leaves out some of the children of Ann and Joseph Vivian. I would like the death date and place for their son Joseph, who was a witness at either the marriage of Ann or Mary. He was not living at the time of Joseph's death--it seems that only Eliza and Hannah were living at that time.
I would appreciate any further information you might have.

There seems to be another Rosewarne who married into the Vivian line, I have Henry who married 31 of Jan 1804 to Mary Vivian, she was the dau. of Charles Vivian and Mary Tippett.

I have information that Catherine Vivian born 3 May 1843 in Holbrook St Austell Cornwall died 15 May 1903 in Qld Australia.
Catherine married Joseph Annear on 15 Nov 1858 at Long Point Victoria Australia. I believe her parents were James Vivian & Mary ??
Joseph was born 1835 in St Austell Cornwall son of Richard Annear & Mary Goldsworthy
Joseph came to Australia on the Shalimar in 1855
Any connection
