I am researching my great, great grandparents Isaac M. Nichols and Cordelia M. Crismon. I have documents that give conflicting dates and places of birth for both. All say Isaac was born in Baltimore, MD in the time frame 1832-1855. Cordelia was either born in CA or MO. Her marriage certificate says she is a native of MO. Her obit says she was born in Red Bluff, CA. I think her children were just confused of where she was born. I believe her parents came out west after having her. I have been told by a relative that her parents were George Crismon and Elizabeth Hagler. But looking at census I found for Oregon and CA I find a Cordelia for the proper time frame living with Gilbert and Nancy Crismon. In the 1860 census for Applegate, Jackson, Oregon there is another family with the head of the family being Archibald. I think Archibald is Gilbert's uncle. I lose Cordelia with this family in the 1880 Yuba, Sutter County, California census. But I do have a marriage certificate for Isaac Nichols and Cordelia Crismon married in Eureka, Humboldt, CA in 1874. I trace her the rest of her life if this person listed in the 1860 census is my Cordelia Crismon. I found no other Cordelia Crismon or any form of that spelling in any of the areas I have searched. This Cordelia seems to be in the areas she is supposed to be in during the right time frames. I have had several people tell me this is my Cordelia. I am searching for birth records for her in MO. I have found none in CA. I am also looking for birth records for Isaac Minard Nichols in MD also. In the different documents I have the Crismon name has been spelled many different ways. Any information would be very much appreciated! Thanks!
