I might impress that 1903 was mainly for Portland area, 1906 was more the beginning of the rest of the state how ever some place started later , some news papers still have archives much older. I am handy to the Archives building we go there time to time .

Weelll, my gr-grf's Douglas Co 1901 death was on an index when I visited GFO a couple of years ago. So, there are some exceptions.
