Hi Kathrina,
My name is Susan Mackin Smith and my ancestors Van Luven lived in Lewiston, NY.My great grandmother was Harriet Alma Van Luven(b. 25 Sept 1879 – d. 8 Oct 1948, Lewiston, NY).Her Parents were: William Sr. (b. 24 Dec 1856 -. 16 Jan 1945) & Lorinda (Laura) ? ? (b. 2 Aug 1857 – 12 Dec 1916).Harriet was the mother to my grandfather Elton Mackin. Her 1st husband was Arnot K. Mackin who drowned in the Niagara River when my grandfather was 8 months old.She remarried Victor Chittenden.
Harriett was a sister to:
William Jr. (b. 1 Mar 1882 – 23 Jul 1962, Lewiston NY) married Jennie Irene Brown
Lennie Irene (29 Jan 1877 – d. 3 Sept 1954, Lewiston NY)married ? Brown
Emma Chittenden (b. – d. ) married Alfred Priest
Minnie Maude (b. – d.) married William Schoonmaker of Youngstown, NY
Jessie J. (b. -d. )married Galen Fields Youngstown, NY
Harry E. (b. – d. Lewiston, NY ) married Florence Armstrong
Edith Viola, (b. – d. ) married Charles Meehlan of Medina NY)
I have been searching for the Levi in the family that I have been told about. I believe he is the father to William Sr. because I have a photo of the Van Luven family and Jane Laycock is in the photo.I'd be happy to share it with you.I have also been searching for photos if you have any.I believe my Levi is a brother to Harriet's father but I cannot confirm.I would like to know who the children of Levi and Jane are.
Can you help?
thanks.susan Mackin Smith
