Frank Spaulding officiating, for Ralph J. Jarvis, Oak Grove rancher, who died suddenly at the age of 47, at the home of his brother, J.G. Jarvis, on Monday of this week. He had been ill for some months, and was believed to be improving. He had gone to his brother’s home to recuperate, and the end was quite unexpected. Mr. Jarvis was greatly respected by all who knew him, and was a man who always looked upon the best side of everything. Ralph Jarvis came to Hood River valley with his brother J.G. in 1901 and took up a homestead in the Green Point district, proving up on it in 1907. Shortly after he sold the place to Robert Sutton and purchased the Bailey place at Oak Grove. In 1912 he married Miss Nina Redfield, who, together with five children, survive to mourn his death. Five brothers, including H.H. Jarvis, of the Willow Flat district, and two sisters are left. This was posted for reference only. I am not related to, nor am I researching this family.
