Okay fellow Vance lovers! You've been great at figuring out what "Blue Ruin" is.

But who or what is Araminta?

Vance has used the name "Araminta" in various capacities for a long time. Not as often as "Blue Ruin", perhaps.

I took the time and trouble to look the name up on the web using Altavista, and was inundated with genealogy websites: "Araminta" was a popular
female name during the 19th century, it seems.

But who is the Araminta in Jack Vance's life? Any knowledge? Any guesses?
