Hi Arline
Many thanks for your very prompt lookup for Isaac Gandy and family. In particular I have
not seen the 1860 census before - Harriet was very young and confuseda about where she
came from! You write that Nevada was part of Utah in 1860. Does this mean that the 1850
census is for Utah too? Isaac, an orphan, travelled from England in 1843 age about 8 yrs
old with an older relative. Maybe if I can find him in the 1850 census I could identify
who he was traveling with. My guess is that it was an older brother and that maybe they
were in California, not Nevada/Utah in 1850. Any ideas?
Much appreciate your efforts on my behalf. Regards Eric Gandy
