The following information is submitted by Mike Yoemans, whose great grandmother several times removed was Minerva Granger, daughter of John Martin Granger. We greatly appreciate this contribution of information on Minerva Granger and her decendents.

This is a brief portion of a more extensive genealogy compiled by me and my cousin Tom Yoemans on the Fish, Oberdiear, and Youmans Families. It shows Minerva Granger’s marriage to Rensselear Fish, their daughter Sarah A. Fish’s marriage to Levi Oberdiear, and then, their daughter Jessica Fremont Oberdiear’s marriage to our Great Grandfather Lafayette James Youmans. I’m not sure how much you want to put up on the Granger web site concerning Minerva, but you may want to consider this information along with some contact information on Tom and me. Stephen Harry Yoemans listed below is our Grandfather. Stephen’s partial genealogy is on the Internet at this site: http://www.billp49.addr.com/genealogy/porter/yoem.htm Nettie May Porter (Yoemans), Stephen’s wife genealogy is also lined in at this site. I was able to get into the Sons of the American Revolution Nettie’s Great Grandfather, Elias Porter’s service.
