Livingston, at 1630 Swain Street, Philadelphia, Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania. Blanche was 11 years old and had attended school within the census year.3

Marriage*17 May 1941She married first, as his second wife, John Alvin Hunter, son of Lewis Hunter and Carrie Viola Sill, on or shortly after 17 May 1941 in Yuma County, Arizona. John would have known his marriage to Blanche was not a legal marriage, and that it made him a bigamist, and we suspect Blanche did not know. One year before his marriage to Blanche, in May 1940, John had married Allie Maoni Olinger in Arkansas. They lived together, first in Arkansas where they had a son in 1941, and then in California where they had a daughter in 1942. John enlisted in the U.S. Navy in 1944, was discharged in 1946, and then enlisted again in 1947. John and his wife, Allie Maoni, divorced in 1948 and their two children were enumerated on the 1950 census with John's parents in California. John's wife, Allie Maoni, may not have known about his relationship with Blanche, or that he and Blanche had had a son together, conceived about four months before John and Allie married in May 1940, and born in September 1940, more than eight months before his illicit marriage to Blanche in May 1941. On the 1950 census, Blanche was enumerated with their son, Dennis Eugene Hunter, and reported as separated from her husband.6,7

Her young son, Dennis, was 9 years old.8,9,10,11 
Marriage*1951She married second, as his second wife, James E. Stevens Jr., son of James E. Stevens and Edith M. Whitaker, about 1951.12,1,13,14,15

Burial* and was buried with her daughter in the Our Lady of Guadalupe Section, Lot 1259, Space 10, of Holy Cross Cemetery, San Diego.1

James Froman1

b. 1874
Family
Father*John R. Froman1 b. 1846
Mother*Elizabeth Revarre1,2 b. 1841, d. b 1880
Birth*1874James Froman was born about 1874 in Indiana.1 
Name VariationHis Indian name was Sah co quah.3 
(Younger Son) Deathbefore 1880His mother had died in Indiana before 1880, probably in her mid-to-late 30s. James, who was only about 6 years old at the time of her death, was appointed a guardian.2,4,5 
(Nephew) Census US 188030 June 1880James Froman was enumerated with his grandmother, Kilsoquah, on the 1880 census in the household of his aunt and uncle, Millie and Anthony Revarre, taken on 30 June 1880 in Jackson, Huntington County, Indiana. James was 6 years old.1 
(Younger Grandson) Miami Census 188117 October 1881James and other members of his extended family were enumerated on the Miami Indian Census taken on 17 October 1881. They were listed as a family group, although four individuals were recorded by the Qua Paw Agency in Oklahoma Territory and two were recorded in Roanoke, Indiana. James was recorded in Roanoke as #30, Sah co quah, alias James Froman, age 7. James's uncle, Anthony Revoir, was recorded with him in Roanoke, while James's grandmother, Kilsoquah, was recorded in Oklahoma with her daughter, Mary Revoir, who was James's mother's sister, and James's two older siblings, Mary and Henry Froman. The census noted that the mother of the three Froman children had been No oc quah ze quah, a Revoir.5 
Guardianship*3 April 1890 The Circuit Court, Huntington County, Indiana, reported that Waren Ladd, guardian of Sah-co-quah, alias James Froman, minor heir of Elizabeth (Revarre) Froman, deceased, had submitted his current report and that he had in his hands $439.05 due his ward. His report was approved and the estate continued. Then, on 26 January 1892, it was reported that the Circuit Court had approved the current report of Warren Ladd, guardian for James Froman.2,4 
(American Indian) Indian Names Getting the Native American Indian names in our project "right" has been a struggle for us because we have often seen the same person's name spelled in several different ways. This was, at first, both frustrating and stressful to those of us who strive for accuracy in the presentation of our research. When we learned that the Miami Indians, who feature prominently in our project, had no written language before their associations with the French and English who kept records by writing them down, we began to understand. It’s all very human. Not every person speaks their words in the same way, and each listener may hear the same words differently. So, it’s not surprising that, phonetically, when names were spoken, they would be written down as each individual listener heard them.6,7,8,9,10,11,12
