Mary, Thank you for this information. My grandfather was a relatively small
man, from the information I have found, and the idea of him working in a
mine has always been a curious one to me. I will have to lookup quicksilver
mining and learn what it entails. Thanks again, Sam in Maz
My aunt always told the story of how the rest of my grandfather's family,
probably in the 1880's, and that they came around the Horn. I have never
found where they disembarked, but I am thinking it had to be around San
Francisco, since my grandfather was in Sacramento.
Mary Ann M.
