Susan Carrie Blazier is listed in the 1900 census as born in Missouri in October, 1850, and the mortuary records at riverview cemetary in Portland list her birthdate as October 20, 1851. She bore Abram five children in California (John in 1868, Ida in 1870?, Edward in 1872?, Eugene in 1875, and Clarence in 1878?) before they moved to Milton, Oregon. There were two more children born in Milton... Rosa and Blanche. Ida and Rosa apparently died young, and Blanche was my grandmother. I'd be very interested in anything you have concerning the Williams family, and anything you might have turned up on Abram. I'm a bit puzzeled about how a saloonkeeper from down in the Redwoods got to Lakeview, and where Abram and Susan Carrie might have spent the early 1870's. Hope to continue this discussion.
