• VAIL
  Submitted by CissieP December 6, 1997
  Does anyone have any information re: Isaac Osborn Vail, who was born in Terre Haute aout 1883? I do not know the parent's names, but am wondering iof anyone has access to the 1880 Indiana Census, they could tell me if there was or were Vail families in the region at that time. Isaac later went to Missouri where he married and eventually eneded up in Holdenville, Oklahoma. Isaac named one of his sons LUTHER NOBLE VAIL.
  Any help would be appreciated.

• VANASDAL
  Submitted by Barbara Johnson November 18, 1996
  My ggf John Isaac Vanasdal was killed when he fell from a utility pole almost in front of the courthouse in 1901. His parent, John and Deborah Vanasdal lived in the county 1900. According to the city directory, there were other Vans, sometimes spelled Van Arsdal, living near John Isaac but I can't find any relationship to them. I feel there was a relationship to at least some of them since it isn't a common name, and would like to learn something, from somebody, regarding the family.
