Message Board Post:
I am seeking information on my paternal grandmother's maternal Grandfather, Andrew
(Andy) Jackson, and his family, wife Anna or Annie, and daughters Emma, Mary (Mary Jane)
my great-grandma Howe), and Annie (married william Thomas Baker). Andrew young was a
miner, and according to my grandma seymour (his maternal grand-daughter) He worked in the
Comstock silver mines.
Among my research involving California and Nevada, I have found that there was a Comstock
mine company called Virginia City Silver Company, I would like any information on the
young family, and the Virginia city Silver company. I belief Andrew Young was a foreman
(according to notes from my late grandmother), in the comstock mine.
My family has a family heirloom, which is one of a a set of silver napkin holders.
According to family stories, the silver napkin holders were made from silver in the
comstock silver mine, and presented to him and his wife, as wedding presents.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Keith H. Seymour
