There was a town called Empire City on the east side of Carson City heading out highway 50, turning on Deer Run Rd and follow to Carson River. There is a abandoned cemetery and that is the general site of the town Empire City. When the Virginia & Truckee rail was running from Virginia City to Carson City, Empire City was one of the train stops primarily because of the processing plants along the Carson River. Hope this helps Alexis Dillon

Does anyone know where the town of Empire was located in 1870 in Nevada? Thank you Christine

I was wondering if anyone new anything about a Harper's Ranch? This is the place my grandfather was born in 1914. His name was Robert Leroy Johnson. Supposedly the church that had his birth documents had burnt to the ground and he didn't have a birth certificate because of this. Does anyone remember or know anything about this ranch or church? His fathers' name was Nicholas L. Johnson; he was a captain of sail and steam vessels. He had also ran tugboats in Seattle, Wa (Rival and Starling were two of his tugs, and the name of his company in Seattle, WA was N.L.Johnson Towing Co.). His mother's name is unknown to me. Any info on any of the above listed people, places, or events would be greatly appreciated. Jenni Gale of WA Researching: *Fred Slater (Native American-Iriquois-Mohawk) and others, *N.L. Johnson Towing Company (Ballard, WA), Johnson, Roberts, Jensen, & Tritline (sndx)

Dear Listmembers, I am researching the surname BOWNE and allied families from 1600 to present in the USA, CANADA, and ENGLAND. The ONLY alternative spelling is BOWN . Surnames that are NOT accepted are: BROWNE, BROWN, and BOWEN. Here are the allied family surnames. These families with these surnames should be found to be married to the BOWNE surname. If these surnames are in your family tree I would like to hear from you, though I suggest that you should be looking for the surname BOWNE in your geanalogy. If you have already found any BOWNE family members I would like to have some information about them. Also, I would like the website or email addresses of the following surnames Ackerly, Ament, Atkinson, Anderson, Applegate, Ashley, Arthur, Alward, Allen, Alioth, Antrim, Apgar, Buckalew, Breed, Bunn, Bergren, Bickerstaff, Byrd, Beach, Bird, Burling, Brinstool, Buser, Bradey, Beckett, Burns, Bush, Burroughs, Berg, Beam, Berry, Bennett, Broodhead, Butterworth, Barber, Barton, Billingham, Cornish, Coleman, Clayton, Compton, Chaffin, Chaffers, Caffrey, Collins, Christy, Cunningham, Conklin, Clark, Cliver, Carpenter, Cronce, Corman, Cormel, Cort, Chrittenden, Conover, Clevenger, Cole, Cocks, Cox, Chapman, Craft, Cromwell, Copperwaite, Dietrich, Dangler, Doyle, Davis, Daily, Dennison, Dusenburg, Dickerson, Dobson, Dirking, Dawson, DeBowe, Doberty, Duryea, Dugan, Deats, Deacon, Embree, Erickson, Emerson, Farrington, Fones, Fronich, Ferguson, Franklin, Foord, Ferris, Foster, Frost, Fowler, Foll, Field, Feake, Greene, Gaskill, Gildersleeve, Gulid, Gray, Gilbridge, Gosling, Garrigues, Hawkings, Hager, Hain, Hoffman, Heakes, Hartpence, Hoppcock, Holcomb, Haverland, Haggerty, Hartman, Hodge, Hyatt, Holmes, Hartshorne, Huntington, Haydock, Howland, Hunt, Hulbut, Hull, Haywood, Hains, Hosier, Harmer, Hix, Harned, Hubbil, Holbroook, Hendicks, Jones, Keese, King, Kerr, Keene, Kitch, Kellog, Kenyon, Kenfield, Lee, Lippit, Lippincott, Lincoln, Landreth, Leighton, Lockwood, Lawrence, Latham, Lunn, Leggett, Merlet, Morrell, Maxwell, Murray, Miller, McKee, McAdams, Martin, Mosier, Miles, Minturn, Mortin, Morgan, Moore, Moulton, Newbold, Nixon, Newton, Nevius, Orvis, Owen, Odell, Parker, Pearsall, Potts, Powers, Pope, Perrine, Place, Prior, Palen, Pell, Parsons, Perry, Pancoast, Quinby, Riker, Reid, Rowland, Richardson, Rivers, Rives, Redmond, Rogers, Rodgers, Reynolds, Raymond, Rodman, Rockafellow, Rapelje, Roe, Stringham, Stoothoff, Schenck, Slaughton, Sharp, Slievers, Scholefield, Storm, Sedgefield, Smith, Skinner, Stout, Satterwaite, Southgate, Shove, Shippley, Sutton, Skillman, Seabrook, Stillwell, Salter, Steele, Suckley, Thorne, Thomas, Taylor, Tappen, Travers, Thorpe, Tiger, Thorne, Tagg, Titus, Townsend, Tallman, Underhill, VanDyke, VanVlack, Wood, Winthrop, Winning, Worthly, Williver, Walling, Walcutt, Winter, Williamson, Weigel, Weeden, Whitefield, Walter, Wright, Worden, Watson, Wilson, Willits, Willitts, Woodward, Wheeland, Whetherwood, Wallace, Whitney, York, Zabrinsky, Curtis, Card, Caroline, Duncan, Grover, Clune, Creclun, Church, Dealy, Bishop, Carey, Cornell, Cramer, Cook, Claner, Draper, Feak, Furman, Fischer, Gilbride, Hasbrook, Greenfield, Hartman, Healey, Murphy, Mott, Rozencranz, Rickey, Skinner, Klush, Hendrickson, Johnson, Morris, McCready, Middlebrook, Huff, Lair, Longstreet, Mean, Mitchell, Nichols,McQueen, Provost, Robinson, Robins, StJohn, Sands, Thompson, Truax, Whitner, Willison, Williams, Styvesant, Patterson, Toner, Terry, Tullison.

Historically, the model for research facilities use in genealogy and family history [in the United States] centered first on the East Coast, with the subsequent gradual takeover in the field of Family History, beginning circa A. D. 1900, by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, (headquarters in Salt Lake City, Utah). Presently, on the East Coast, the Library of Congress Online Catalog has a database of "approximately 12 million records representing books, serials, computer files, manuscripts, cartographic materials, music, sound recordings, and visual materials in the Library's collections." http://catalog.loc.gov/ This is further enhanced by major research depositories from New England - to the South, as well as some other locations in the Central section of the United States. This can be compared with the LDS FHC of Salt Lake City, Utah, having 2,000,000 + microfilms and approximately 280,000 bound volumes. REF: The World of Learning 1999, Forty-Ninth Edition, by Europa Publications Limited. http://www.familysearch.org/Browse/browse.asp On the West Coast, in the State of California, there is the Melvyl® Catalog Database. Its contents, as of December 6, 1999 are listed as: "approximately 10,013,139 Titles representing 15,226,500 holdings for materials in the University of California Library and the California State Library". http://www.melvyl.ucop.edu/ This represents a major PARADIGM SHIFT in the field of Genealogy and Family History Research, as this database alone represents more resources than those contained in the Online Library of Congress Catalog. Limited in-house access to Other Databases includes RLIN Bibliographic File (@RLG) of approximately 88 million records, as well as WorldCat (@OCLC) and its 32 + million records. SOURCES and REFERENCES, at: http://www.dcn.davis.ca.us/~vctinney/archives.htm#Sources combines these major holdings with other online databases of genealogical interest - worldwide.

It has been estimated that in the State of California, alone, that by the 1990s, there were over 70 millions of books within the various library systems, statewide. The future of the California Library system is: "One library, 8,000 doors", as mentioned in an editorial in The Sacramento Bee, dated Sunday, May 4, 1997, page 4 of the Forum Section).
