I read Anne's ancestor list of early Oregon pioneers and thought, "What a good idea!" Here is mine. Are there any connections out there? Mitchell Porter GILLIAM, to Oregon 1844, settled Wasco Co, OR, Klickitat Co., WA Andrew and Catherine Grimes HAGEY, to Oregon 1848, settled Marion Co., OR Lewis and Amy Long PARROTT, to Oregon 1847, to Klickitat Co., WA, 1859 John GOLDEN, to Klickitat Co., WA 1859 Beckwith and Mary Pettingell Rice COOK to OR 1851, Lane Co. Seley and Nancy Rice COOK to OR 1851, Lane Co. Also, how early must a a person have arrived to qualify as a "pioneer"? That might be the start of another list!
