I seem to have inadvertently deleted the posting re the above. I'd very much appreciate a reposting or a copy being sent me. (My grandfather crossed the country to CA sometime between 1880 [when he appears on the ME census] and 1884 [when he married in CA], and I''ve been trying to understand the motivation [neither his parents nor any of his 4 siblings chose to accompany him].) I also wonder how he traveled.
