Note: Henry and Carrie had 11 children of which 8 of them made it to adulthood. *********************************************************************************************************************** From Hopeful Church Record Book #1 - Church Members record Page 50: Member name : Carrie Naomi Tanner Vaughn Admission mode: baptized Admission date : Dec 1, 1875 Removal mode: died *********************************************************************************************************************** Notes per Michael Schmaltz: Census 1880; Union, Boone Co., Kentucky. Keeping House. Census 1900; Florence, Boone Co., Kentucky. Census 1910; Florence, Boone Co., Kentucky. *********************************************************************************************************************** Notes per Paul Tanner's booklet "Some of My Kentucky Ancestors" : I do not remember my grandmother Tanner. She died May 17, 1914, before my second birthday.
By all accounts she was a good woman. My mother spoke very highly of her. Apparently they lived with my father's parents briefly when they first married.
Carrie was born in Boone County Nov. 25, 1858--the third child of John G. and Talitha Vaughn. The family soon thereafter moved to Campbell County. "Caroline" was listed as being one year old in the 1860 Campbell County census, Alexandria area.
In 1872, John G. Vaughn brought his family back to Boone County, moving on land belonging to and adjacent to Talitha's previous guardian, Aaron Zimmerman.
Aaron and Martha Zimmerman were probably the nearest to grandparents that Carrie ever had. Her grandfather, William Vaughn, died before she was born. His wife, Nancy, remarried and raised another family. The whereabouts of Talitha Reed's parents are unknown.
Carrie's great-grandfather John G. Ellis lived in Covington into the 1870's. Perhaps she knew him. At least, she named one of her sons Lloyd "Ellis", from whence my Paul "Ellis" was derived.
February 22, 1877, Carrie Naomi married Henry Louis Tanner in Aaron's house. He was 19, she 18.
Henry Louis and his sister had inherited 29 acres from their grandfather Tanner, near Carrie's father's place. He was a tall promising young farmer whose father was in the Frankfort penitentiary. Henry had lost both grandfathers and one grandmother the previous year. His parents had been divorced that year also. He may have felt very much alone. The property he had inherited was still being administered by a guardian.
Carrie was a hard-working farm wife. In pictures, she did come to Henry's shoulder. She bore him eleven children --two died in infancy; one, Carlos lived several years. Carlos was younger than my father. My father has said, rather guiltily, that he was not sorry to see Carlos die. My father felt neglected because Carlos' illness had taken so much of his mother's time.
November 23, 1893, Carrie bought four adjoining acres from her father (part of the Aaron Zimmerman property) and put them in her name. October 22, 1906, she bought four more acres of adjoining land for $121. Henry Louis treated the entire 101 acres as one farm. However, upon his death in 1931, Carrie's 8 acres went directly to the 8 surviving children.
--From Paul Tanner's Notes of items published in the Boone County Recorder newspaper: =BCR date published 8-2-1905..........Mrs. Henry Lewis Tanner has been quite poorly for a few days. 8-16-1905..... ..Mrs. Henry Lewis Tanner on sick list 9-27-1905........Mrs. Henry Lewis Tanner entertained with a dinner Sunday. Those presnet were Mr. & Mrs. J.G. Vaughn, Mrs. & Mrs. Will Tanner and daughters Stella and Ina. Those from a distance were Mr. Fowler and best girl of Cincinnati.
