I recently started reserching my Violette hictory. My dad is a Violette(Jack Vernon Violette born 12/30/45). His Parents were Harvey Vernon "Buck" Violette(born 10/3/16 and died 12/22/84. He was born in Tennessee and died in Princeton, WVA.) and Ettie Belle Altman(born 9/6/1925, presently living in Hopewell, Va.)I also know that "Buck" was in the Air Force and in the war. His parents were Harvey Richard Violette(birth and death I have not been able to find out) and Rutha Beatrice Goins(birth adn death I have not been able to find out).I believe that he also was in the military. Harvey Richard's parents were Martin Violette(born 1846 and died in 1901 believed to be in Cambell Co., Tennessee) and Anna Harrison(born 1848 and died in 1914).I am not sure if he was in the military or not. Martin's Parents were Hiram Violette(born around 1810 in Kentucky? and died between 1855 and 1859 in Tennessee) and Phebe???.Phebe was believed to be from Virginia. I also know that Harvey Richard was a coal miner and I think died of black lung. Also one of my aunts(Patricia Ann Violette Read) gave me some information that she had found out years ago; there was a Henry Violette that had a wife named Amelia. He was the Ambassador of France for the U.S. during the war. His wife is believe to have been on the TITANIC when it went down. She thinks that he had 4or 5 brothers or sisters. We have not been able to find out if he was any kin to our line of Violette's or not, but if we could find out more information on his sibilings or children it my shed some light on the missing pieces. I have not been able to find any information on whether or not Hiram Violette had any brothers or sisters or if he had any other children besides Martin. And the same goes for Martin and Harvey Richard. I do know that Harvey Vernon "Buck" had 3 or 4 brothers and atleast 1 sister. The brothers I know of are Jim Violette(deceased), Buster Violette(don't know if that is his real name or just a nickname)from Ohio, and Jack Violette(died during the war). I am not sure of his sister's name, it may be Willie???, She may be from Flordia. There is also a Donald Violette from West Virginia that I believe was "Buck's" nephew, but I am not sure of that either. My dad said that he thought that one of "Buck's" brothers names was "Bugg" and that he is from Ohio. I have started a Violette Lineage of what I have found. If anyone would like to see it please respond back or e-mail me. If anyone has any information that they think would help me let me know. If I helped anyone I am glad I could help and let me know about that too. Thank you for taking the time,
Eager to find out more,
