I wonder if someone on the list can help me. I am looking for members of the NATION family in Portland. Not sure if this is the best list but I am not sure what County Portland is in. I have information from a Family Bible which says both William Bryer NATION and his wife Mary Ann NATION died on 2nd July 1875. I am not sure if this is a mistake or if they both died on the same day which would be unusual. Does anyone have access to Obituaries for Portland who can check for NATION around that date. In fact any information on NATION in the area. Also, Charles E NATION died in Hood River, Oregon in 1908. He was buried over in New York though. Might there be an obituary in Hood River for him? Were there any other Nation's in Hood River area at that time? Many thanks. Rosemary Nation (Essex, UK) rose@nation7.freeserve.co.uk
