Surnames: Martha Blow Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/VW.2ADE/1031 Message Board Post: The middle inital is not A but rather M. I talked with you before thank you for your letter Carolyn. Did not find an obituary for her at Eureka. However, found a listing at Falk (Falk's Claim, by jon humboldt gates) just outside Eureka, Humboldt co., which is: Bertha Blow I will look for a date of death for her. Found in 1860 census a list for Alfred Blow at Arrapahoe co., Kansas from a book listing people who came from Tenn., South Carolina, Virgina. I am working from the LDS, Family History Center here in Ukiah. I hope what I found may help us with Martha's husband's family in California. JoAnn
