RE: Vivian de Valera His mother Amelia died when he was young. Vivian's father was said to be of high militay rank and a tobacco dealer between the US, Cuba and Spain. This connection to Cuba may be the reason some say that Vivian was born on that island. Cuba as the place of birh for Vivian may be conjecture . On Eamon de Valera's birth certificate it states that his father was born in 'Spain'. Vivian is found on the 1916 'corrected' birth certificate of Edward de Valera and also on his baptismal ceritificate. No date of place of death has ever ben located nor was he in any city directories of NYc, Brooklyn, Jersey City, Newark and Denver the place where he is said to have died. In a reminiscence writtn by Kate's nephew, Edward P. Coll , entitled 'Autumn Leaves',Mr Coll tells of his father Edwards's sister Catherine, his bout with maleria and his trip back to Ireland in April 1885. (when he escorted Eamon back toIreland?). "His sister, Katherine (whom we later knew as our 'Aunt Kate') had met and married in the city a young Spanish artist some three yeares previously. He became ill with 'blood fever', as tuberulosis was then called, and Ny doctors told him that his one hope of a cure was to live in the dry climateof the West, for certian patients had regained their health in the then territory of New Mecico. He started on that long journey but died and was buried somewhere along that westward trek. No letter of his ever reached my aunt and a long search and writing of many lettes to civic and church archives have never disclosed where he may have died'. (How did they know he was dead?) On Nov 13, 1943 an article appeared in the NY Irish weekly - The Irish Advocate, 'My De Valera Seeking Information About His Father Who is Believed To Have Died in Denver(s n 1886?possibly left for the west in 1884) .
