- ↑ Fannish sources and two newspaper articles (see Decker Dillies) refer to Marvis and Vincent as brothers. We have found no evidence in the public records that Marvis had a relative named Vincent, however. There are a number of Vincent Mannings in the census records in the first half of the 20th century, but none connected to Marvis' immediate family. The news photo of Vincent taken in 1941 indicates he was probably in his 20s.
