Unfortunately some of this information is incorrect. I apologize for jumping to conclusions with my first response.
On the basis of further research I now believe the line is: Marinus, Cornelius, Jacobus, Garrett, Benjamin Cole and Elizabeth Van Vredenburgh, Aaron F and Mary Ann Fuller, Charles E.and Malissa Gager, Owen F, Vanett.
The dates and places are a much better fit. Aaron F (1838 PA-1892) and Mary Ann Van Aken (b NJ)went to Blue Rapids, Marshall Co, KS and are listed there in 1870. The son of Charles E and Malissa, Owen F, was born in Waterville, KS just a short distance from Blue Rapids. Malissa, Owen, and sister, Florence, are listed on the 1900 census in Pottawatomie Co which is situated next to Marshall Co.
I am continuing to document the family in KS.
