Bessie came to California from Iowa. The records can show the road.
This entry is the end of the story. The older records hold the rest: the census pages Bessie grew up on in Iowa, a marriage record, the family’s move to California. With both parents' surnames here (Ray and Caunter), we can usually reach the generation before too. We search them one name at a time and send you what we find, read in plain English, with every fact cited to its record and where to look next.
