She informed me that she did not write the book. Here is some of what she wrote to me: "First let's clarify something - I did not author the book HISTORY OF THE SILVERTON COUNTRY, it was written by Robert Horace Down in 1926 - before I was even thought of :-). What I did was to create an every name index to it, along with THE BOOK OF REMEMBRANCE, by Steeves, and SUBLIMITY, by Schmid. The HISTORY OF THE SILVERTON COUNTRY is more of a history than a genealogical reference, the only gen material is in the footnotes." Thanks for your reply...and her address.
