William had been a menmber of the Lodge in Coquille and also I found many ref; of him in the Court house dealing with the Lumber / logging Bussines in the area untill he died in 1919. he at one time had lived in Fairview, but is bur in Mrytle Point. Prob also lived in Coquille. Some Ch also lived in out lying area's. Several son's were Preachers of Brethern I believe, in the area till later when they moved northward. My Grt Uncle Rev.Jessie Barnett was one. See the message I just posted for more imfo.
