Have additional information to add to Bickle query: extracted from old
newspapers some back ground info on the brother's immediately family.

Richard Bickle d. April 7, 1869 Aged 33 years, Unmarried Native of
Cornwall, England
Father and Mother Living at Cornwall.

John (James) Bickle; born in the parish of Calstock, Cornwall, England;
d. April 7, 1869 Aged 28 years

There were two more brothers, the oldest and the youngest of the family,
living in England,
together with the father, mother and one sister. A year or so prior to
April 7, 1869, one of the
brothers died in this county of mountain fever, while at the same time,
another brother
perished in the mines in Cornwall.

I have a small headshot photo (copy of) taken of the three brothers, two
of the brothers have
their given name and the surname of BICKELL written under their picture.

If any of this sounds familiar, lets talk, Alexis
