Just joined the list. Hopefully will be going to Brownsville, Oregon for annual Pioneer Picnic, in June. Will be going to visit the Pioneer Cemetery, and hopefully, unless it is raining cats and dogs, I can do some "looking". Anyone interested in pictures of grave-sites, let me know, and if I can find, will take a picture. Linn Co., Oregon, Web Site, I think, has a list of pioneers buried there. When I was in High School, lived less then a mile away from the cemetery. There are several other cemeteries in the area, if I can find. Let me know. Can't promise, for sure, but will try.

Shirley: My gr gr grandfather James Blakely laid out the original Brownsville, and named it after his uncle Hugh Leeper Brown. See my web page w/photo's at: http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~cchouk/blakely/ You might want to see if you can find the graves of James Blakely and Hugh Brown. shirley wrote: > > Just joined the list.

Goodmorning, Shirley, I believe a nearby MICHAEL cemetery was started by either Eli or his father, Jared, both of whom arrived OR in 1847. Was the Pioneer Cemetery re-named from MICHAEL? .If you could, I'd like photos of Eli and Jane (HODGES) his wife and also Jared and his wife (name unknown). I''d be happy to pay you through snail.
