Leabo -married Pauline B. Horsman Effie Leabo married Durham my notes for Jacob are as follows.............. Believe that Jacob is found with a Oradon Leabo in the 1880 cencus for information see Rin # 93 under the 1880 cencus for his children and decendents Information given from Henerreta Moss In 1847 , Jacob Leabo, fifth child of Francois Isaas and Sarah Leabo, came to the Oregon country. Captain of the train was Isreal Matchell. In the train were the Thatchers, Knigtens, Milland many others. The train started from the vicinity of Cedar Rapids, Iowa, and arrived in Portland, Oregon in November. Shortly after that, Jacob settled on a piece of land in Clackamas county, east of Canby, but returned to Cedar Rapids, early in 1848 with Joe Meek, Geo. W. Evbberts, Jack "the sailor" and others. Jacob returned to the west in 1849 with his son Marion who died December 2, 1852, in company with those whom they had made the trip east in 1848. Jacob was born September 10, 1795, in Knox County , Tennessee. He married Elixabeth Bailey who was born in Kentucky in 1803. She died in Linn county near Cedar Rapids, Iowa on August 25, 1852. Is buried in the Cambell cemetery. Jacob Leabo. returned to Iowa in 1853, to find his wife, Elizabeth Baily Leabo, had passed away the year before. He moved to Freemont county near Sidney,Iowa and lived there until 1862, when he, again, came west with quite a compay of relatives. He lived in Forest Grove, Oregon for some years, in the home of O.J. Mage Leabo, finally going to Lafayette, Oregon with the Maje Leabo family were he died June 10, 1880. He is buried in a cemetery near Lafayette, Oregon. 1850 Census - Ray County, Missouri - File 10 0f 13 DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE BUREAU OF THE CENSUS WASHINGTON Schedule 1.---Free Inhabitants in District No. 75 , in the County of Ray , State of Missouri . enumerated by me, on the 25th day of October , 1850.

However, as Warren pointed out, there are several "unkowns"; no burials, etc. AND, food for thought: there is lot 16, assigned to Trebus......there are no burials by that name; or other people in the neighborhood by that name.... The 2 burials that are there are: Benjamin E. Rees 1878-1970 and Dollie Rees, 1880-1966. Who are these Reeses??? Are the related?? Is trebus at mistranslation of Leabo? An interesting side light: in the 1870 census - Jacob is living out at Wapeto, in the Home for O.J. Leabo, age 36, peddler, wife Amanda, age 35, and a large family of children, including Alonzo Rees Leabo, who later lived in Forest Grove. The only burial that I find for this whole family is Roy Hinman Leabo, buried at Mtn View Memorial Gardens, FG, died the 12 Feb 1891, son of A.R. and Ida Hinman Leabo. Marriage book 3, page 26 - Married Reas Leabo and Ida Hinman, at the house of A(lanson) Hinman in Forest Grove 6 Dec 1881. This is the only Leabo marriage up through the Book 3 index, (Mar 1896.) Wapeto is at good 18-20 miles from the West Union Baptist Cemetery. There are no Leabos in Hill Cemetery, Gaston; nor Forest View at Forest Grove. Nor is the burial records of Forest Grove Undertaking Co, that I have. Let me know your thoughts.

I am carrying on my mother's passion for geneology and ran across your message. I am directly related to LEABO on my father's side (KELLEY). I live in Oregon and spend a lot of spare time tromping through the old cemetaries. I visited JACOB LEABO's grave last Saturday in LAFAYETTE. Quite a few family members are buried in the plot as well. I have a few family portraits. Please write me and we can share information. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Here in a nut shell is a direct drop descendent for Jacob and myself. Jacob is my 3rd- great grandfather on my father's side. Please write back soon and let me know how you are placed in the family order. I have information to share and have lots of questions I am sure you can answer. I will be researching a few items at the library tomorrow here in McMinnville, Oregon and will be in Salem later this week. Much of the family is buried at LEE MISSION in Salem.

Someone mentioned the BLM site was down. I found that also. Is it temporary? I read about some governmental litigation involving security related to land claims. In any case, could you post the site address you use. If a lookup is available I would love to find out if Alexander Hamilton who arrived in OR in 1849-1852 made a land claim. Thanks for any help. Helen

Helen: Do you recognize the name Salathial Hamilton? That name appears on one BLM map in 1860 that I've indexed from the BLM maps on my site. T27sR6w, Sec 5 and Sec 8 Claim # 49 Not. # 3648. That's in southern Oregon near the Umpqua River.
