Hiram Perkins Vrooman
Hiram Perkins Vrooman (24 July 1828, Schenectady – 8 March 1908, Springfield, Massachusetts was an American pioneer, judge and politician.[1]
Hiram was one of eight children of John Vrooman and Elizabeth Bingham who had both grown up in New York State. John was descended from Hendrick Meese Vrooman,[2]: 3 who was one of the seventeenth century Dutch settlers of Schenectady who had died in the Schenectady massacre.[3] However, in 1837 the family moved to Sylvania, Ohio where John started a farm. This was shortly after the Toledo War had been resolved, with Sylvania being located in the Toledo strip which was absorbed into Ohio.
