Isaac Brough Law in the 1870 Census

Isaac is found with his siblings, mother, and step-father, John Humphries in Paris, Rich county, Utah in the 1870 census. At the time this census was taken, it was believed that Paris (and all the other LDS Bear Lake settlements) was in Utah. Shortly thereafter it was determined by surveyors that these were actually in Idaho.
