    Notes:

    Grandchildren not yet connected to the children of Frank and Mollie:

    Mary F. Santmyers (John Davis)
    Betty Lou Santmyers (David Trove[?])
    Virginia Santmyers (Vincent Bell)
    Wallace E. Santmyers
    Notes:

    .........Gerilee Santmyers supplied a birth date as 1859 for Daniel, Izetta lists his birth as 1853. With either date it seems impossible that Frank born 4 Feb 1861 could be his son. I have 1886 as the date of marriage, which would fit with the birth date of 1887 for Infant Fnu. Also the the 1887 marriage fits with a birth date of 1853 or 1859. Thus, either the birth date is incorrect for Frank's birth or this is not the correct Frank Santmyer. I suggest this is not the correct Frank to connect with Daniel, since Mollie, wife of Frank, was born in 1862, and their marriage date is listed as 1884.

    Update 1/22/00: Information received from Ron Santmyers, great grandson of Frank and Mary A. (Mollie) Mitchell Santmyers includes the following:

    Frank Santmyers, born 1861Warren Co., VA, died 23 December 1941Warren Co., VA, was the son of Mildred A. and Daniel Santmyers. This Daniel (not Daniel P.) was born 1814 (based on age of 36 in 1850 census) or 1820 (per info from Ron Santmyers) in Shenandoah Co., VA and died in 1897 in Warren Co., VA. In addition to info from Ron Santmyers, the 1850 Warren Co., VA Census also lists the wife of Daniel as Mildred. I believe that Frank Santmyers born 1861 and his descendants were incorrectly attached to this Daniel P. and Mary L. Putman Santmyers.

    Frank married Mary A. MITCHELL 25 Dec 1884, Warren Co., Virginia. Mary was born 2 Oct 1862; died 25 Dec 1927; was buried Dec 1927, Prospect Hill Cemetery at Front Royal, VA. [Group Sheet]
