  • ******************************************************************************************************

She was married 2x: 1st to James Kelley and 2nd to Joe Payne. She may have married, the father of Ruth Manshot/Manshaw... But i have no Record of this. .
First to James Kelley and they had my Grandmother- Gladys Mae Kelley. Then, possibly but Not certainly, so that is why, it's not included, in the numerical listing, to Joseph Manshaw, who came into the marriage, with a daughter from his previous marriage. The Daughter´s name was Ruth Manshaw. Apparently, Joe Manshaw´s first wife, up and left him and their daughter. Joe seemed to think this was a good idea... and decided to do the same, with Vivian, and up and left her, with his daughter Ruth and later this happened again, with the father of her only child, her daughter with James Kelley- Gladys Mae Kelley.

Then, Vivian married J. J. "Cowboy Joe" Payne. He adopted both girls, under his Surname- Payne. J.J. "Cowboy Joe" Payne passed away.

She Never remarried as "SMITH" this was a name Change Suggestion/Alias, from her daughter Gladys, After The Passing of Joe J. Payne.

She is listed as Widowed in her death record.

I´ve also been told, Vivian sang in a Church Choir, too!

Found in a 1930 Census in Winchester Village, Adams Co., Ohio: Jo J. Payne aged 58, Vivian aged 27, Gladys age 9 (the Census was in April Gladys had birthday in Summer.), Ruth age 8.  Sources: Things my Mother has told us. There is a marriage record, from Manistee, Michigan attached to the "Sources", as well as, a photo of the digital record of her Birth in Ohio Births, from Ancestry.com.
