I am looking for any information on the Keyes/Vandermark families. The Keyes were mostly from Mississippi area around Hattiesburg and ther is some Indian heritage.(this is what I've been told)My grandfather was Ras Oree Keyes. I think he has 2 living sisters in or around Hattiesburg. My grandmother is Virginia Mae(Vandermark)Keyes. I think she has some Irish from what I was told. I cand only recall a few childrens' names that they had: Sonny, Robert, Dennis, Jerry and I'm not sure if there were any others.Also, my G-grandmothers' name was Mary (Gike)Vandermark.My G-grandfathers' name was Jeremiah Vandermark. If anyone has any information, I would really like to hear from you. Thank you.

Hi, My Great Grandmother was a Vandermark from Luzerne Co. Pa. I have some of the lineage but I am missing some also. Please share what you have with me and I can share what I have with you. Most likely there is a family connection. Most of the Vandermarks in that area were related somehow. You csn contact me at mysticaltinkerbell@comcast.netThank You Susan
