I am not related to the Hendra's just doing some research in the Humboldt area. Here
is what I found.
S. Hendra on the 1880 census Nevada Humboldt, Unionville age 8 with his parents: Jas and
E.P. (That is how it is listed)
1900 cenus Nevada Humboldt Dun Glen/ Solomon born Jan 1873 27 single born Nevada a
laborer. (His father James and mother Elizabeth same household.
Solomon married Lucy Maybell Nelson 1901 in Dun glen, Humboldt Nevada. Per the
familysearch.org listing.
(her family is listed in the 1900 census for Dun Glen with her widowed mother Ellen and
her brother Frank J (1873) and sister Hattie E (1880). Same page as Solomon. They were
neighbors.
This is from
www.familysearch.org (LDS site)
www.rootsweb.com/news is a website that will give you newspaper information for
Humboldt, Nevada. Do a search under Hendra and you will get all kinds of
"thumbnail" sketches. Sol Hendra was murdered in 1909.
1910 census for Nevada Humboldt, Nevada Dun Glen has Lucy as a widow. I can't access
it through
Ancestry.com as they have 1910 all messed up with the immages.
1920 census for Nevada has Lucy and family now in Mill City, Pershing county. (Note in
1919 Humboldt county Nevada split up and part became Pershing county.)
1920 has her brother Thomas in farm next door and his mother Elizabeth is still alive.
So checkout these websites for information
www.nevadaculture.org / search for Nevada census info
www.familysearch.org / LDS site for 1880 and also family info
www.rootsweb/com/news for Humboldt county newspaper information.
(
Ancestry.com has under Ancestry World Tree Project information on Solomon Hendra and
family with much of the above information.)
Happy hunting....Arline in Reno, Nevada
