Found a while back. All on the maternal side of my family.
Ruffus Ranway (B. 1846. Ranway certainly stuck out to me)
Annibella (B. 1856)
Silvanus (B. 1771. Married to his wife Silvia. Silvanus & Silvia. 😅)
Hulda (B. 1771)
Alse (B. 1781. This may be a typo for 'Alyse' Not sure)
Thankful (B. 1700)
Louise Arzula (B. 1854. Again, for the middle name)
Washington (B. 1862. There are several. I believe my 2nd Great-Grandfather had this name)
Lurline (B. 1895)
Lafayette (B. 1906.)
Elfrida & Freda
Zaidee (B. 1770. This one was completely shocking to see as it comes across as ultra modern)
Tasker (B. 1848. Also seen this on a few others as a middle name. Perhaps after him.
Chauncey, Phineus & Gideon (1800's)
Vernon Ranway (B. 1902. I believe the grandfather or possibly great-grandfather of Ruffus)
Deccia, Willard & Buras (1920s-1930's)
Also:
Larelle (Great-Grandfather's middle name)
Romain (Great-Uncle)
