Dear Marc,
Thank you so much for the information on Weldon.When my first bbok was published (1997), I had no further information on Wldon, so assumed (never assume) he went to California in 1864 with the rest of the family.It looks like he married a girl from Missouri and, since he was buried there in 1897, I can (hopefully) assume they returned to there sometime after 1880.Will have to work Susan into the sequel.Since she is ten years younger than he, they probably did not marry until the early 1870's, judging from the ages of the children, as well.Now I need to find out who was the Minerva Randolph, Weldon's mother, that married Philip Crose Jr.Little by little it comes together.
Thanks so much for your help.If you are interested in reading 'Matilda's Story', it's available on Amazon.com.(Or I can send you an autographed copy)
