Notes
!JAM Traveled from VT to the Great Lakes region, and studied law for a while in
Peoria, IL, but did not stay long enough to graduate, and eventually worked his
way down the Mississippi River to New Orleans, teaching and doing odd jobs
along the way. After his wife died he took his daughter to his sister's home
and went back to New Orleans and boarded a ship for San Francisco, the
"Dalmatia", where he was in charge of cargo on board for the firm of Knowles
and Noels. By 1858, he had moved from San Francisco to Mariposa, CA, where he
was listed as a lawyer. He eventually remarried to Anna who was from England,
and they ran a boarding house in Mariposa, but had no other children. About
1862 he sent for his daughter and she came to CA by wagon train.
