My g-g-grandparents were William CRAMER & Ruth Jane Coggburn Cramer, who came west by wagon abt. 1886 "following" her brother, Jack COGBURN & wife, Liza Jane Boston Cogburn. He seems to have followed his brother in law, William BOSTON. First they went to the Nyssa area of Malheur Co, then Valley County, before homesteading north of Ola. Mills in "All Along the River" writes that many Missourians & Arkansasans cut ties in Valley Co. for railroad companies, so I think that is a likelihood. One of my g-grandmother's sisters married William PADDOCK, whose family was also in Taney Co. in 1880. Family tradition is that others traveled with the Cramers, but I haven't indenified them yet. ________________________________ From: Mike St. Clair/ST <mike@saintclair.org> To: idgen@rootsweb.com Sent: Tue, December 1, 2009 11:43:31 AM Subject: Re: [IDGEN] Taney County Connection I didn't know!
