Tracy;
Thank you for helping me get this much straightened out. Now I just have to hope that I don't have all the others mixed up.You may hear from me soon if I do.

Thanks Tracey!! I didn't have some of the spouses for James and Udavilla's children. I went with Paulus for all of them, rather than using Powlis or Powley, and had some of the them sorted out, but I did have the mistake of having James Matthew married to Anna Catherine Carver, instead of John Matthew, who had Paulus and James Matthew. I do have John Matthew Varner 's parents (born July 2, 1797 and married to Anna Catherine Carver) . John Matthew's parents were John Michel Varner, born 1743 in Preussen, Germany, and Mary Margaret Kurtz, born 1751 on the Rhine River in Germany, married 1787. John Matthew's siblings were Marie Margaret, born 1791 in New Germany, and Maria Elizabeth, born 1794 in New Germany. I got that info off the LDS site. I know the site isn't 100% accurate, but I do use it alot to corroborate dates from other sites.
Thanks so much for taking the time to respond to my query. I really appreciate your time.
Marjorie

Hi Marjorie,
I'll try to explain the mystery to you.
The Paulus Varner born August 23, 1823 died December 26, 1903 was the son of John Matthew Varner and Anna Catherine Carver. He is the one married to Ann Elizabeth Joudrey. It is this Paulus who had a son by the same name (Paulus, Jr.) born March 27, 1873 and died December 5, 1899.
James Matthew Varner was also a son of John Matthew Varner and Anna Catherine Carver. This one was born April 11, 1835 and died October 29, 1917. He married Mary Anne Elizabeth Romkey, born April 13, 1839 and died May 14, 1917.
The James Matthew Varner that was Powley Varner's father and my great-grandfather' s father, was son of Paulus Varner and Ann Elizabeth Joudrey. This James Matthew (although he used Matthew) was born August 1, 1858 and died December 18, 1914. He married Udevilla Hazel Beach, daughter of Oscar Beach and Caroline Wambolt, born August 14, 1863 and died November 15, 1908. Their family is as follows:
1. George Thulbert (Fred) Varner (my great-grandfather) , born January 12, 1882 and died January 22, 1984, married Leah Mabel Bowden.
2. Percy Lee (Perce) Varner, born June 5, 1884 and died April 22, 1969, married Georgina Mae Dorey.
3. Joseph Anson (Anse) Varner, born January 19, 1886 and died March 14, 1980, married Emma Amelia Dow.
4. Eva Maude Varner, born March 23, 1888 and died June 17, 1981, married Albert Edmund Bowden.
5. May Varner, born February 1, 1890 and died 1973, married Charles Benjamin Veinot.
6. Laura Jane Varner, born March 23, 1892 and died in Hamilton, Ontario, married (1) John Charles Haines, married (2) Earl William Godfrey.
7. Aseph (Ace) Varner, born April 24, 1895 and died November 10, 1988, married Hilda Mae Tufts.
8. Lois Maria Varner, born January 5, 1897 and died 1920, married Robert Herman Westhaver.
9. Mary Emma Varner, born January 1, 1899 and died December 22, 1986, married George Ernest Feener.
10. Paulus (Powley) Varner, born March 1, 1901 and died July 21, 1986, married Leah Bernice Matthews.
11. Arthelia Varner, born April 6, 1903, married William (Arthur) Veinotte.
Hope this helps. If not, let me know!

Still more than a tad confused about Powley. I have a Paulus "Powley" Varner, son of James "Matthew" Varner and Udavilla Hazel Beach, but don't have a birth date for him. Their son Paulus was married to Leah Matthews. Udavilla and James Matthew were married October 31, 1880. Also, anyone know who James "Matthew" Varner's parents were? I found a Matthew Jr and a Matthew Sr on the NS Historical Vital Stats page, and I thought that Matthew Sr might have been the father of James "Matthew", but the dates don't match up. I have a birth date for James "Matthew" of 1848, who died December 18, 1914.
I found a Powlis Varner ( I would guess that this Powlis would have been born around 1830?) married to Ann Jodrey on May 7, 1853, who had a son Powlis, born March 27, 1873.
So, are there 3 Powlis/Paulus, Powley Varners ? One born about 1830, the second, born 1873, (son of Powlis and Ann) and the third one, son of James "Matthew" and Udavilla Varner?
Dazed and confused....
Marjorie
