Hi Bea, Sorry but I don't. The only thing I know is that she was born in "Black Log, Huntingdon" (PA) Jan 1, 1854. I am trying to find a possible family for her....by following any leads I can find on her surname or variations in this area. The article about her twin sister says her sister's given name could have been 'Juniata' or "Susquehanna'. But it is quite possible that the man/family she was given to changed her name. One of these days I hope I can find a free census trial to do a search of the entire US in 1860/1870 for all girls born on Jan 1, 1854 in PA!!!

Elizabeth, That's going to be a difficult search because those censuses don't contain dates that specific. You could search for the year but the results would technically include all born from June 1st, 1853 through May 31st, 1854 and realistically include and exclude some whose age wasn't accurately provided, recorded or indexed. Depending upon the index searched, you might not be able to specify gender. On Ancersty.com, for instance, in the index for 1860 you cannot specify gender but in 1870 you can. Other providers of census access may have better or worse search capability of their own indexes. Good luck, I'm afraid you're going to need it. FWIW, Ancestry.com offers 14-day free trials but I'm not certain if that includes census access. It can't hurt to check them out at www.ancestry.com and see what you can get for free.

Hi, I searched the 1850 and 1869 census ..the name McGurvey and McGervey - nothing. McGarvey did come up for noth. NONE of the names came up. Did Harriet have a middle name ? Anything else about her family ? I thought I would find her in census but no luck.
