Eli Vanluvanee married Susan Swope in 1850, they both lived in the Plumstead, Tinicum, Nockamixon area.
Researching Eli Vanluvanee and Susan Swope has been quite challenging. The last name is spelled so many different ways, often on the same page. Elijah and Susan had 12 children and 2 of their sons were named with a variant of Eli/Elijah. Elijah born in 1861 married Josephine, the daughter of a Virginia slave. Elijah born in 1856 married Susan Leatherman. So now we have 2 couples both named Eli/Elijah and Susan/Susanna.
