My grandmother, Cleo Veon, always said her father was first generation. His father was Alonzo Bently Veon. I found him on both the 1870 and 1880 census but there are conflicting place of birth given. Wood, Seneca and Portage Co. Ohio are all possible locations. He married Annette Baldwin in 1853. They had 7 or 8 children. My greatgrandfather was in the middle (Clifford) I'm trying to find the French link. Anybody have any ideas?
