Don, I was at the east Salem FHC tonight and found a book "Scotts Mills, Oregon, A Continuing History 1846-1919" This book listed the Van Arnam children attending Alder Creek School in 1893. The Jacob Van Arnam family is listed as residing in the area during 1900 and 1910. This book also list Edward C & H.W. Tozier and Dunagan's in the area were Crescent, Elizabeth M., Etta, Manilla, Thomas M. Jr and Sr, Viola and Willis. On the cover of this book is Scotts Mills Historical Society, P.O. Box 80, Scotts Mills, Oregon 97375. Scotts Mills is a very small town so even if the Historical Society isn't using that box # any longer, a letter would get to them.
