Ramsey is not an unknown name in Lyon County. I still drive on the Ramsey cut off between
Carson and Yerington. I do not know if it is your Ramsey however.
They would have had to get a license to run the boarding house so county records for that.
Lyon was not a county until '61. For about 100 years that area answered to Ormsby
county but generally records would be found in Carson City. (Created in 1969 when the city
of Carson City and Ormsby County combined to form an independent muncipality) My first
stop would be the Nevada State Library in Carson City. They have the goods. If anyone has
written anything about the Ramsey family they would have it. Good hunting, Cathryn in
northwestern Nevada
