The family surname is seen under various spellings over the years and may have been previously spelled "Yonne" and before that "Dionne." Arthur's father, Osiber, is seen in the 1871 Census of Canada named as "Ausuber Yon" living in Medonte, Simcoe North, Ontario with his parents, Gregoire (Gregory) Yon and Marguerite (Margaret) Swale, and three siblings. The family indicated they were of French origin.
Gregoire's 1861 marriage record reflects that he was born in 1839 in Riviere du Loup, Quebec, Canada and that his parents were Louis Yonne and Thersile Beauchamp. Marguerite (Margaret) was listed as 16 years old and her parents were transcribed as Thomas Swills (headstone reads "Swale" and he was born in England) and Martine L. Her maiden name was Lefebvre per her 1810 marriage record. May be seen as "Martha" in some records.
Arthur's mother was Josephine Ann Bodie, whose father, James Bodie, also went by James Greeley, which was listed as an alias on his "Civil War Pension Index: General Index to Pension Files, 1861-1934" record. He died in 1894. Josephine's mother was Mary A Jarvis and after James passed away, she married Stephen F Adams in 1901.
This information below is incorrect - it is information about Arthur's brother Edward, who married Flossie, the sister of Arthur's wife, Etta Martha Rozell:
"Married Flossie Mildred Rozell. She is buried in Tomahawk Wisconsin. Of this marriage there were 3 children. Times were hard then, and fathers had a real challenge." (Info provided by Iris Rozell)
