Janet, Thank you for the info on Clarence and Josephine Bennett. My Clarence was married to Ora Ellen Bennett who died in 1950. I have a copy of her death certificate and she is buried with Clarence. But this Clarence matches up perfectly! I suppose it's possible that he remarried in that amount of time? Now I have more detective work to do! Anyhow, thank you for that info.. I really appreciate it! -Katie penelope126@hotmail.com _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp

How can you get a death certificate that is newer than 50 years? How direct of family do you have to be? How do they ask you to prove it? How much does it cost? I'm desperate for a death certificate from 1961, and can't wait till 2011 to get it! Would this death in 1961 be listed in the index even though you can't access the certificate? Where would I find it? I searched at the archives building in Salem, but didn't see his name (Clarence S. BENNETT). I'm so stuck. Any info is helpful to me and much appreciated.. thanks! -Katie penelope126@hotmail.com ----- "The death index is current , only the file access is limited to50 years ago for the cert unless you are direct family and want to pay the prices.

I am not connected to the names in the photos you found, but I sure hope that if any of my family photos are languishing in some old store someone is good enough to take the time to try to get them to family members who might appreciate having them, as you have taken the time to do. Thanks on behalf of those who wish they had some photos of their ancestors! Midge

The Dalles Chronicle November 18, 2001 Assembled by Elroy King 21 Years Ago, November 18, 1980 Both sides of the Columbia Gorge would benefit from "rational federal management" Multnomah County Executive Don Clark said today. He announced a plan to form a committee to ask Congress to designate the gorge as a national scenic area. He said such designation is the only way to preserve the area from development. Three members of fall sports teams at Judson Baptist College (The Dalles) have received special honors for their efforts during the 1980 season. Kent Holloway, a junior striker from Sherwood (Oregon), has been named to the National Little College all star soccer team, according to the NLC newsletter. Sophomore Jane Milne and freshman Vicki Bays were selected to the all star tournament first team at the National Invitational Little College tournament held last weekend at Trinity Western College at Langley, British Columbia. (Chronicle Editor note: The file for the last quarter of 1981 has turned up missing, so the year differs on segment of Looking Back.) 40 Years Ago, November 18, 1961 The Dalles apparently has not been affected by the virus sweeping other nearby schools, according to Alvin Unruh, assistant superintendent. Wy'east High School in Odell (Oregon) reported 200 students absent Friday out of 530 enrolled. Jeannie Harn of The Dalles is one of five candidates for Homecoming Queen at the University of Oregon. Miss Harn, a 20-year-old junior majoring in elementary education, is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Wayne Harn. She is a member of Gamma Phi Beta Sorority and her activities include Kwama, ASUO Election Board, Phi Theta Upsillon and SU classics committee. 60 Years Ago, November 18, 1941 Wasco County's Red Cross roll-call for 1942 has produced 494 individual members and has raised a total of $810.20 up until last night, it was learned here today. The figures are based on incoming returns from teams now soliciting funds within the city limits of The Dalles and do not include monies received from rural areas, according to Joe D. Tomison, roll call publicity chairman. The lower grade room at the Rowena (Oregon) school was the first group to form a 4-H club this fall. This club will be a health club, with George Martin as president; Barbara Meatte, vice-president; Sharon Means, secretary; and Mary Austin, reporter. Mrs. Stella Gronewald was chosen as the leader. Glen Wright and Jack Campbell are the other members. Miss Betty Jane Welborn started work yesterday at U.S. National Bank in the bookkeeping department. She was graduated from The Dalles High School last June. 80 Years Ago, November 18, 1921 One hundred and fifty shingles from Old Fort Dalles, each shingle bearing a picture of the old fort, will be offered for sale in The Dalles at $1 apiece by members of the Old Fort Dalles Historical Society it was announced today. The 150 shingles are all that remain of the original 10,000 that once protected the surgeons quarters of the old fort from the elements. Each was made by hand. 100 Years Ago, November 18, 1901 Willie Edwards, the little nephew of Mr. and Mrs. Carnaby, learned yesterday by sad experience that a cigar cutter will cut other things besides the ends of cigars. While examining a cigar cutter in the candy store next to the American market the boy put his finger in the little hole and was surprised to have the fleshy part of that member snapped off in less than a jiffy. The cut extends to the middle of the fingernail and just barely missed the bone.
