Venus/Venias from Barcelona, 1800's
I am researching my wife's family tree.We recently discovered that her ggg grandfather, John Venus (also spelled Venias, Venious, Vienes--descendants spelled it Venus) was born in Spain ca 1845.He left Spain for American ca1860, and married in Mobile, Alabama, to Mary Frances Kilpatrick in 1865.The Census says he was born in Spain, as were his parents.I recently obtained the death certificate of his daughter, Emma Venus St. Clair, which lists the birthplace of her father as Barcelona, Spain.Any information will be appreciated.
