Daily AncestorMandy
Mandy stood for Amanda in many American records of the 1700s and 1800s.
Mandy is a pet form of Amanda. Nickname lists made for 18th and 19th century research, such as the one from the Connecticut State Library, pair Mandy with Amanda.
If a search for Amanda finds nothing, try Mandy, and the reverse. Treat a match as a lead and confirm it with age, birthplace and family members.
