In the following, I will refer to my 3xGreat Grandfather, James as Veranus. My mother's father is Bruce Larrabee - great grandson of Veranus. I have compiled all my Larrabee information completely from genealogical books, birth, marriage, and death records, military and cemetery records.
I have seen several spellings for Veranus. Varanus, Varanous, Veranous, Voranus, and Vorranous. It is also questionable if his first name is James. He is said to have a brother, also named James. The second James may be Veranus' first son, who is also named James V.(Veranus?) Larrabee.
Some accounts say that Veranus married Julia Bennett, and that brother James married Lucy. I feel certain by the out-weighing evidence that Lucy Bennett is this Veranus' wife.
I have yet to find the grandfather of Veranus, father of Stephen.
More to come...
