This | | seems to confirm (to an extent) the 2 stories I have heard, one from | | Samuel's descendents and one from Hannah's. Putting them together the most | | likely scenario seems to be that he formed a bigamous marriage with a | Cassie | | MacDougall around 1886 and that they had a child in 1887 (probably why he | | married her). He may well have lived a double life for some time and then | | took the opportunity of the San Francisco Fire to "disappear" He appeared | to | | have lived in or visited San Francisco in 1902. If it is not too much | | trouble could you look in the 1900 census for Cassie Harris/MacDougall in | | San Francisco, and also for Samuel & Cassie in the 1920 census for | Alhambra | | as he is supposed to have died there in 1920. | | | | Regards Clive |
