Usually if the information is correct I am able to find other references to it and this is just not coming together. I do know the family lived around Harrisburg from census records but perhaps the "flat" place is actually in reference to a different location. It is listed with the "flat" place and Harrisburg according to the family bible. Misty Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

That whole area is flat! ;-) The only location in all of Oregon that has a name anywhere close that I can find is, Shelter Cove and that is all the way up and over to the east side of Willamette Pass on Hwy 58 at Odell Lake. Perhaps, for those with access to land records, they might want to look for anybody with a name similar to Shetler or Chetler and see if they had any property in that area.

Hi mighty76, I am from Oregon and was just sitting here when I saw your message, so I entered Chetler Flats and this is what popped up. Maybe you have seen it maybe not. So, far I haven't been able to find Chetler Flats itself. I am a Powell relative and a Charles Cochran married Mary Olive Powell. She was the daughter of my 3rd Great-Grandfather's (John) brother Joab Marion Powell, I don't know if he is part of the same family or not. http://www.couchgenweb.com/couch2/john3.htm ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ "gc-gateway@rootsweb.com" <gc-gateway@rootsweb.com> wrote: This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list.
