 Susan Christina Hann - Leroy Vanness

Susan and Leroy were married in 1921. Leroy was 28 and Susan was 21. They settled on a small farm located at 2741 Indian Creek Road, Reily Township. In 1946 they moved to Oxford, Ohio at 107 East Spring.

Susan was always a housewife, raising her family, a large garden and chickens. Leroy graduated from Reily High School. Susan stopped school in grade eight so she could help brother Bill with his wounded leg. She educated herself by helping her children with their homework. She read almost all of their textbooks. Leroy and Susan were active in the Walker Methodist Church and later in the Oxford Methodist Church.

Leroy spent time in France during World War I. Susan worked at the Treasury Department in Washington D.C. during part of the war. During the depression, Leroy went to Detroit to paint. He lived with Bryden's (family friends) and drove the Model A Ford back on weekends. Susan ran the farm, garden and animals. They sold and dressed chickens each weekend for the Huddle Restaurant in Oxford.

Leroy was always a painter. He took over the business from his father. Later in life, Myron joined him. After Leroy retired, the business was sold and is still going on as Vanness Decorators. They were believers in education and were very proud that in June of 1950, all three of their children graduated from Miami University.
