The marriage records don't start that early in Oregon. We generally have to rely on church records, that far back. Vancouver (Clark County) might be different, if you post to a board over there.

I remember the several inches of water at Jantzen Beach, but maybe it was 1946-47. rather than 1948. I do know it was late May or early June because i was going fom Toledo to Heppner to spent the summer with my aunt. School had just gotten out. And the Columbia Riv Hwy was closed.

Hi Cecil and other listers, I lived in Vanport as a child, and recall attending kindergarten there. We had moved to Saratoga Street in Portland by the time of the big flood, but I think I remember a flood of some kind while we lived there 1946-1947. I remember driving on streets with several inches of water. It seems we were returning to get some items from the Vanport apartment we lived in. My stepfather was one of those veterans trying to return to civilian life. Geraldine Ingersoll The Vanport Flood washed away Vanport City, the largest public housing project ever built in the United States, at 4:05 p.m. on May 30, 1948, when the dike holding back the Columbia River gave way. The city, at one time responsible for housing nearly 50,000 people after construction was completed in 1943, was underwater by nightfall. Fifteen people died in the flood. http://freepages.history.rootsweb.com/~cchouk/vanport/

The Dalles Chronicle March 17, 2002 Looking Back is compiled weekly by Elroy King. 20 Years Ago, March 17, 1982 Resolutions imposing a delay on the start of a study for reorganization of School District 9 and 12 and giving each of the boards involved a chance to request the study be stopped were approved by the Wasco ESD (Education Services District) board at its March meeting Tuesday night. Both resolutions were introduced by ESD board member Dr. Dean Wilcox, whose zone includes parts of the District 9 school area where a group of citizens have organized and circulated petitions opposing reorganization and any study headed toward it. Kenneth Farner, president of the Mid-Columbia PCA was honored March 8 during Ag (agriculture) Conference Days at Oregon State University in Corvallis (Oregon) for PCA's contribution to the new OSU Foundation Center. Ron Mobley, Paula Kaseberg and Randy Morris won most valuable player awards in their sports it was announced Tuesday night at the Sherman County High winter awards night. Mobley received the boys basketball honor, Kaseberg won for girls basketball and Morris was selected for wrestling. 40 Years Ago, March 17, 1962 Seventeen year old Hollis McDonald, Dalles High School senior and son of Mrs. Helen McDonald of Route 4, Friday was elected president of the state chapter of the Future Farmers of America. McDonald is already serving as the president of the Blue Mountain District of the FFA. He's also served as ASB (Associated Student Body) president and president of the junior class. 60 Years Ago, March 17, 1942 Wasco County property taxpayers have remitted more than 65 percent of the total levy for the first six months of 1942 when the deadline for payments, sans delinquent penalties, was reached here Monday night, Sheriff Harold Sexton reported this morning. At the close of Monday's business, Sexton said, tax receipts in round figures amounted to $254,000 of the $374,000 half year levy and can be compared to the $334,000 which was remitted by March 15, 1941, but which was then applied on the full 12-month levy and thus represented little more than 50 percent of the total $648,000 assessment. An additional government trapper of predatory animals will start work in southern Wasco County on April 1. Arrangements to this effect were completed yesterday by Stanley G. Jewett, predatory animal inspectory of the United States biological survery, who was in The Dalles conferring with County Agent E.R. Jackson. Jewett has charge of all government trappers in the state. 100 Years Ago, March 17, 1902 We are glad to know that another move has been made in the interest of the Boy's Club, and that they have leased the Schanno hall over A.M. Williams & Co., furnishing department for a year and expect, with the aid of their parents and friends, to put in a gymnasium in the near future. Reverend D.V. Poling, who is the leader of the club, left for Portland on the noon train and will look this matter up while there to determine what a complete outfil will cost. F.A. French is now chief of The Dalles fire department. The position with which Frank's friends have honored him is a responsible one. His companions in the department say he is just the right person to fill the place satisfactorily, having been a faithful member of the Columbia Hose Co., for years and never failed in a single instance nor shrank from the arduous duties of a good fireman.

I am researching my mother's Aunt Helen Leach born July 15, 1900 in La Grande, Union Co., OR. She married Ira West b. Jun 28,1895. Helen died May 1975 in Clatskanie, Columbia Co., OR where they had lived their married life. Ira died Sept 1980 there. They had 2 daughters: Virginia Lorelle West Friesen b. 5/10/1921 d. 6/15/1995 L.A. Co, Sylmar, CA. Barbara West ????? I hope that Barbara is still living. I haven't found CA data on her, so maybe she is still in Oregon. I don't know her married name. Both Helen and Ira were Christian Scientist's. If you are connected to this family, or remember them, please write. Thank you very much. Lillian Kathleen Martin

My grandparents, Clarence Frederick and Grace Wilson Davis lived at PO box 64, Adams OR for many years. Grandma Grace died in 1966 and Grandpa Clarence died in 1953. They owned a little house just over the bridge about 1 block from the post office. I think Clarence was the school janitor for a while. Any information about my grandparents or Adams OR would be greatly appreciated.
