Surname: BROWN, MYERS
-------------------------

Trying to solve a photo mystery surrounding my great grandfather Frank
Ricard Brown. He was born 1858 Sacramento CA to Henry N.H. Brown and Cordelia
(Myers?). Henry Brown was a gold rush pioneer in Bodie CA and later settled
in Sacramento. I have a photo of Frank taken in Grass Valley CA from 1868.
He would have been ten. I am curious to find out if the family moved for
a time to Grass Valley, Nevada Co; or if Cordelia Myers' family was from
the area. Frank Brown eventually moved to Bodie where he worked for the
Standard Mining Co in the late 1870s. Any help greatly appreciated.
