Subject: CRANDALL, Angeline Melissa

At 15 years old or so CRANDALL, Angeline Melissa boarded a covered wagon and
headed out west so she would not have to marry an older man. Her father was a
Mormon,I believe. She married BRUNTY, John T. (from Ireland?) and it is
believed that may have been in Susanville, Lassen Co., CA where she also gave
birth to her son, BRUNTY, John F. b. 21/04/1865, however, there seem to be no
records in Lassen Co. as it was a goldrush town. (The "F" in my Grandfather's
name stands for Francisco (as in San Francisco), and I believe it's because
John T. might have left Ireland during the potato family and gone straight for
the gold.
I have no idea where to start, but had such a situation in TN and it seemes
as though everybody seemed to rally 'round me. Hope you will help too.
