Thanks for the information. The Settlemeier that I'm related is Claude Settlemeier of Woodburn. Claude's wife, Bertha Grills Settlemeier was my grandmother's sister. Claude and Bertha had a daughter named Claudia Settlemeier Kelly and a son named Thomas Settlemeier. Another son died during WWII. thanks again for the information, Mary Ystad Curran ----- Original Message ----- From: "Pete Wasser" <petew@netcnct.net> To: <OREGON-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tuesday, February 26, 2002 3:50 PM Subject: Re: [OREGON] Name of Cemetery and Looking for Carsner/Casner Descendants > The State Reference, Capitol's Who's Who for Oregon 1948-1949 > Capitol Publishing Company, Portland, Oregon > > Frank W.
