My son bought a case full of family pictures at an auction. He said he would be delighted to have the family of these folks receive these pictures. We looked through them, many do not have names on them, or places, but the names and places we found include: Prineville, Hood River, Monmouth, Portland, Bend, and Canton (Ohio?) Some are dated in the 1920's. Many of the pictures are in very good condition. Names included are: Aunt Jenny Sosey, Canton, 1926 Edna, 21 yrs old, Dec 24th sent to Hood River people Mr and Mrs B P Inman, 50th wedding anniversary, 1889-1939 on Christmas Harold and Henry, 1923 Edna, Billie, Glen, May Davidson, Mary D.

Hello there. I am searching for a book published in Marion County around 1920. It is entitled "The Marion County Book of Remembrance" and it is a collection of accounts of the pioneers that settled the county in the late 1800s. My family had a copy when I was young, but it has since disappeared. I have four photocopied pages of my ancestors, Charles Benson and Absalom Greenstreet, but nothing more. I would LOVE to have a copy of this book. If anyone knows where I can find it, I would really appreciate the information. Thanks so much for your help. Sincerely, Ansara Hirst

Dear Linda: Thanks so much for posting the Aurora story. My folks came over the trail to the Willamette in 1853. I have visited Aurora and now better understand the spiritual basis for that community. My Joneses buried a son, Willie, in 1855 to start the pioneer cemetary in Brooks, Oregon, a few miles South of Aurora. I wonder what the predominantly English community thought of these hardworking Germans. Did most of them respect their industrial ways of were they regarded as "foreigners". I would like to believe the former....Jay ORMARION-D-request@rootsweb.com wrote: > Subject: > > ORMARION-D Digest Volume 98 : Issue 20 > > Today's Topics: > #1 New listowner for ORMarion-L ["Linda Nichols" <linred@hotmail.co] > #2 [ORMARION-L] Aurora Colony ["Linda Nichols" <linred@hotmail.co] > > Administrivia: > To unsubscribe from ORMARION-D, send a message to > > ORMARION-D-request@rootsweb.com > > that contains in the body of the message the command > > unsubscribe > > and no other text.
