Amanda "Mandy" McDaniel was born circa 1878 in New Hope, Iredell County, North Carolina. She was the daughter of J. Allen McDaniel and Kansadie (Fanny) McDaniel nee Eades. Some people tend to confuse Mandy with her Aunt Amanda America Clementine McDaniel.
Please see my earlier blog on posts on Amanda`s parents as well as her Aunts Amanda and Lutisha. I am slowly researching this family in detail and will be posting my findings here. I am just beginning to dig into Mandy`s past and what I find I will update in this posting.
I have located a marriage record between an Amanda McDaniel and one John Lotz on 6 February, 1894 in Randolph, North Carolina. I will say at this point that I do not know for certain this is the same Amanda. I will have to do some further research into this before I can say it is with any certainty. So if you are reading this please note that fact and do your own research, as you always should anyhow.
North Carolina, Marriages, 1759-1979," index, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/F8BL-KYP : accessed 11 Mar 2013), John Lotz and Amanda Mcdaniel, 06 Feb 1894.
According to Mandy`s year of birth being 1878 this marriage date would put her at being 16 years of age which is about right for that time period.
Randolph County, North Carolina is about 85 miles on today's map from Iredell, North Carolina where Mandy was born. It is right at 62 miles from Davie County, North Carolina where the majority of the McDaniel family resided.
(Note: I am not done with this blog will update more later)
