  • Notes 
    • In Martha Reid scrapbook Old Places & Tales she details Ann as 'Married a Mr. Gillette, and moved to California where he became governor'. We have a full record of Ann marrying Columbus Gillett, moving to California (Censuses) but he is a rancher, no record of politics or Governor. Later in her scrapbook she details Anne Bilbo as Mrs M G Gillette on a photo 1879 Comstock Mine with John MacKay and ex president Grabt, this may be an error as at this stage I find no link between Mrs M G Gillette and Anne Bilbo. Maybe Maude made the connection, or maybe a relative in the town told her of the connection, at this point we do not know. The image was available as a postcard, the original photo can be viewed at Getty Images.
