HOME SEARCH 1876 John R. Tanner Born: 1876 (believed) at New York State Died: Oct. 29, 1955 at Unknown - possibly Indiana Buried: Unknown His father was Unknown. His mother was Unknown. He was married Nov. 11, 1908 to 1892 Bessie Ann Livingston. John and Bessie had one child together: 1909 John Elwyn Tanner. NOTE: the only "John Tanner" I could find with a DOD of 1955 was at FindAGrave.com, and his headstone shows a different wife's name, so the connection is very tenuous; if this John Tanner is not the same one, then we have no idea what his date of birth was.
