28017 In reality, we know nothing about this person. All data listed for him is merely conjecture. Stories in the family say there "might" have been a brother named Benedict back in Lithuania who later came to the U.S. and may have moved to Detroit. Benedict VANICKIUTIC
 
28018 Her real name is unknown, but it is said within the family that Vincent's daughter, Isabel, was named after his sister back in Lithuania.

This compiler was told that Isabel worked like a man out in the fields of their family's farm. 
Isabel VANICKIUTIC
 
28019 The actual spelling of this name is uncertain. No records have been located that can be cited as proof. The Naturalization records for his granddaughter, Ona (Anna) Wanicki (b. 1897) provide her father's name as Wincantas Wanickiutic and her uncle's name as Benedict Wanickiutic. However, a general rule for Lithuanian surnames suggests that possible spellings would be as follows:
Vanickas = male
Vanickiene = married woman
Vanickaite = single woman
There is no senior and junior (ie. Sr. or Jr.)
Wife of Smith would be Kovaliene.
Son of Smith would be Kovalevic^ius / Kowalewicz or Kovalaitis.
Wife of son of Smith could be Kovalevic^iene / Kowalewicziene.



The following excerpts are from the Zemaitis webpage (http://home.fgi.net/~zemaitis/zemaitis2.htm#top):
-----
Many Lithuanians who wanted to Polonize their surname added "icius" (the Lithuanianized Polish "icz") to their last name, for example, emaitis became emaiticius, or, even more Polish than that, emaiticz. To add further confusion, if the surname was Russianized it became Zemaitovski. The emaitis surname is probably not a good name to use for this example, but you get the idea. And, when the emaitis family came to the USA, they didn't speak English (or write Lithuanian) and the Immigration Officials had no idea the husband's surname was emaitis, the wife's surname was emaitiene, and the unmarried daughter's surname was emaityte. No wonder Lithuanian-Americans have trouble tracing their Lithuanian roots.

The -auskas surname endings are Lithuanian for the Polish -owski. The surname ending was Lithuanianized by changing the -o- to -a- and supplying a Lithuanian case ending. It is important to remember that an -a- and -o- are similar sounds in Lithuanian and are often switched. Names ending in -owski and -auskas tend to come from toponyms. The -ow- component means 'of (the) ___,' and the -ski suffix means 'person from _____'. Lithuanian names ending in -auskas may indicates a relationship with a place or person.

A Lithuanian surname formed by the addition of the suffixes (patronymic endings) -aitis, -ius, -unas, -onis, -enas, or -ynas indicates the relationship to the name of one's father or paternal ancestor. Similarly, the suffix -iewicz is the standard Polish patronymic ending and -ovitch is the standard Russian patronymic ending. These suffixes literally means "son of", exempli gratia, Johnson, son of John. They were introduced into Lithuania from Old Byelorussian. Their use dates back to the medieval period when Old Byelorussian was the language of record in the Grand Duchy of Lithuania.

The -aite ending of Lithuanian surnames signifies an unmarried female. Lithuanian surnames in the US with an -aty ending are the Americanized form of the Lithuanian -aite ending.

Arturas Zukauskas of Vilnius, Lithuania wrote: "Purely Lithuanian suffixes indicating the origin are: '-aitis', '-enas', '-unas', '-onis', 'ynis', 'inis'; suffixes indicating smaller one: '-elis', '-utis', '-ytis'. Some Lithuanian surnames (probably from emaitija?) are short and end with '-kus': 'Butkus', 'Bartkus', Vaitkus', 'Vitkus', Jankus', 'Kartkus', etc. Some others are just names of animals and birds: 'Katinas' (tomcat), 'Sernas' (boar), 'Sakalas' (falcon), 'Lape' (fox), Vilkas' (wolf). etc. There are a lot of Lithuanian surnames originating from Polish, Russian, Byelorussian, and German. Some are intentionally Lithuanianized as 'Zemkalnis' from 'Landsberg'."

According to Lithuanian linguistic expert Dr. L. Palmaitis, in Lithuanian orthography the letter ‘i’ after a consonant and before a, o, u, ai, uo, nasal ‘a’, and nasal ‘u’ is not pronounced and is changed into a palatal sound. Lithuanian surnames such as: Andrulonis and Sablauskas are Americanized variants of Andrulionis and Sabliauskas. Lithuanian linguistic expert, Dr. Girdenis, explains that the correct Lithuanian forms of surnames such as ‘Sabaliauskas’ and ‘Andrulionis’ (or ‘Andriulonis’): ‘l’ in such surnames is palatalized (light, soft) and it sharply differs from non-palatalized (dark, hard) ‘l’. The character ‘i’ before ‘a’, ‘o’, ‘u’ is the sign of palatalization. The spelling of the above mentioned names without the ‘i’ are corrupted – it may reflect obsolete Lithuanian orthography (in 16–19th centuries we have had two different letters for palatalized and non-palatalized ‘l’ – as in Modern Polish).
---------


The Lithuanian-Polish union came under threat from Prussia, Austria and Russia at the end of the 18th century. An uprising by the Lithuanian patriot Col. Jacob Jasinskis in 1794 was defeated, and most of Lithuania was annexed by Russia in 1795. The new rulers tried to Russify the country, closing Vilnius University and banning the publication of Lithuanian books in the Latin alphabet. In the late 1800s, brutal persecution and economic necessity forced thousands of Lithuanian to emigrate.
1795 The third partition of Lithuania. Lithuania was annexed to Russia, the region of Uznemune to Prussia.
1795-1918 The whole Lithuania was ruled by strangers.
1812 Napoleon troops invaded Lithuania.
1831 The uprising against the Russian occupation.
1840 The Statute of Lithuania was abolished.
1861 The abolition of serfdom.
1863 The uprising against the Russian occupation.
1864-1904The press in Latin script was banned. The Russian alphabet was introduced.

DEATH: We may surmise that this individual and his wife were deceased before 1909 or quite old because Vincent's daughter, Ona, was cared for by her maternal aunt Juszkiewicz in Memel (now known as Klaipeda), Lithuania. This was quite some distance away. Of course, it is possible that customs of that time led to the maternal family caring for a motherless child.

28049 From "America's Successful Men":

COL. WASHINGTON ROMEYN VERMILYE, banker, born in New York city in 1810, died at his home in Englewood, N.J., Dec. 23, 1876.

He was a son of William W. Vermilye, and a brother of the Rev. Thomas E., Jacob D., the Rev. Robert G. and William M. Vermilye, and through his father of Huguenot and by his mother, Mary Montgomery, of Dutch ancestry.

First a clerk for The New York Bible Society, he afterward entered the office of Rufus Nevins in Wall street, where he remained until he went into business for himself, shortly after he became of age. Later, he formed a partnership in banking with George Carpenter under the name of Carpenter & Vermilye, which continued until shortly after the breaking out of the Civil War, when the name was changed to Vermilye & Co. The house is yet in existence.
Having military tastes, Mr. Vermilye in 1830 joined the 5th Company of the 7th Regiment of militia. Promoted to be a captain in 1833 and major in 1840, he became colonel in 1845. He also was a member of the Veteran Association down to the time of his death, being at one time its colonel.

At the outbreak of the Civil War, he enlisted as a private in the 8th Company for a three months campaign in 1862. After long service in the regiment, he retired, but retained his interest and took an active part in the building of a new armory.

He was president of The Greenwich Savings Bank and a director of The Merchants' National Bank and The Presbyterian Hospital, a member of the Board of The American Bible Society and The Presbyterian Board of Foreign Missions, and an elder in the Presbyterian Church at Englewood.

He made liberal bequests in his will to religious and charitable organizations In 1834, Col. Vermilye married Elizabeth D., daughter of the Hon. Samuel Lathrop, of West Springfield, Mass. Two children survived him, Washington Romeyn Vermilye and Emily A., wife of Elbert A. Brinckerhoff. He was the soul of honor, a good friend, a useful citizen, a staunch patriot and a trusted banker, and as a Christian, sincere and devout. [p.694]
