-------------------------
I found that when Doten mentions one person he often mentions their relatives
in the area -- this is how I found several members of my great-great grandmother's
family in Virginia City (Storey County -- must mention county, heh-heh).
Doten was born in July 21, 1829 in Plymouth, Mass. He left Plymouth, as
a member of the Pilgrim Mining Co. in March 1849; he begun the journal
on the first day of the voyage. He landed in San Francisco in Oct. 1849
and went to Calaveras County. Went back to San Francisco in 1855; moved
to Mountain View in 1856, then Milpitas in 1858; Watsonville in the early
1860s; Como, Nev., ca 1863; Virginia City 1864; Gold Hill 1872; Austin
1881; Carson City 1883; Virginia City 1885; Carson City 1887; died Nov.
12, 1903.
