Notes:

From Isaac Julian Harvey: California Pioneer, by Florence Margaret Baker, edited by Jo Ann Sloan Rogers (Monterey County Historical Society, Inc., Salinas, California: 1987), two yellowed clippings from local papers in family Bible, page 255:
	In the spring of 1846, sickness overcame two of the three remaining children, seven year old John and three year old Julia. They died within nine days of each other. This must have been incredibly taxing on Sarah Harvey; to nurse and lose two children, only four years after losing her infant son, while eight months pregnant with yet another son.
