Nancy and James had a rough time, matrimonically, she was stubborn and could
be real vindictive - was selfish - but other qualities she had were that she
sometimes loved her husband and family to a point of possiveness. When the
gold rush took place, the Moffitts were among those wh headed the call, before
1890.
