Reverend Jeremiah Vardeman
(1775-1842)
Reverend Jeremiah Vardeman (1775-1842) was a noted Kentucky Baptist
preacher of the late 18th and early 19th century. Jeremiah was a son of
the second John Vardeman, grandson of “old” William Vardaman and
great-grandson of the original Vardaman immigrant to America. While the
biographies are lengthy, the ancestral data contained in them is very
brief consisting of only one or two short paragraphs.
Several of these Jeremiah Vardeman
biographies have appeared in various publications over the years, see
Early Vardeman History publication for details starting at
page 18.
The only records of our Vardaman family origins that have ever been located are
found in the various biographies of the Reverend Jeremiah Vardeman and
the Lyman C. Draper interviews with his brother, Morgan Vardeman.
