Lyman Grandy was . abt. 1828 in NY. The couple married abt 1859 in Freeborn Co., MN. Ida Belinda was born abt. 1860 in WI. Her sister, Alice I. was born abt. 1862 in Freeborn Co., MN. Their father served in the Civil War. He died Oct 1863. Emma's 2nd husband was Alexander Hill. She married him abt. 1864. I found the family living in Faribault Co., MN on the 1870 census. The 2 girls' surnames were listed as Grandy. The family was living in Faribault Co. on the 1880 census. The 2 girls' surnames were listed as Hill. Alexander & his wife moved their family to Blue Earth Co., MN abt. 1887. I am trying to discover whether the girls used the surname Grandy or Hill. They would have been in their 20's in 1887. Did they marry in Faribault Co. or Blue Earth? Who did they marry? And when? Thanks in advance. Judy Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
