I attended Washington High in Portland, Oregon and graduated in June of 1946. I would assume that there would be a picture of Wilma Mooman in the Junior class (terms 5 & 6) in the school year book called the Lens. The four school years were divided into two terms when I attended and therefore assume it was true prior to my attendance. I am not related to this subject but do hope someone else sees your message. You may have better luck by posting it in Multnomah County Oregon rather than Polk County. (I was born in Polk County and attended grade school there, but high school in Bremerton, Washington then back to Portland during WWII.)

THIS CERTIFIES THAT WILMA MOORMAN HAS COMPLETED THE ELEMENTARY COURSE OF STUDY. This  is some kind of certificate. It is in very good shape.  It was found in the LENS a 1934 WASHINGTON HIGH SCHOOL Yearbook.From Portland, OR.   She is listed in the sixth term in 1935. I am not sure how the terms went? I am not related to this person and I have not done  any research on this family. Kathy Jerman

We are of the Reeves family who married Bulloch and have sent you an email. The Bulloch and Reeves families have a rich history in Independence, Oregon beginning in the early 1900's. Thanks for rescuing the photo. We would love to keep it with the family collections.

I've "rescued" an old photograph of Robert Lewis BULLOCH and George Spencer REEVES of Independence, Oregon. The photograph was taken at the McCall Studio in Independence, likely sometime in the early 1900's with the two children listed as 7 years + 4 months, and 3 months, Robert being the oldest of the two. In addition to their names and ages, someone has also written "For Toadie" on the back of the photograph. Based on limited research I was able to locate the following information regarding at least one of the boys pictured: Robert Lewis BULLOCH b. 23 Nov 1900 in Colorado to parents Herbert Spencer BULLOCH (b. 15 Mar 1869 in Lyn, Grenville, Ontario, Canada) and Galena Birdett REEVES (b. 19 Jul 1877 in Chillicothe, MO). The couple had at least one other child, a son Lestor Fortune BULLOCH b. 1907 in Independence, OR. I am hoping to locate someone from this family so that the photograph can be returned to the care of family. If you are a member of this family, or you know someone who might be, please contact me. Thanks, Shelley

The Lucas family, the Davidson family, the Hutchinson family and the Butler families traveled from Monmouth, IL to Oregon in 1852, arriving in Monmouth, OR in 1853. Sara Lucas Butler was Ben's aunt. Perhaps you can use that as a resource to find someone in the family. Bettye Researching Hutchinson **************Make your life easier with all your friends, email, and favorite sites in one place.

I've "rescued" an old photograph of Ben & Kate (NELSON) LUCAS which was taken at the C. Fritz Studio in Portland, Oregon. The photograph appears to have been taken in the 1880's with the couple appearing to be in their 20's or 30's at the time. In addition to their names, someone has written "Paternal Aunt Mildred E.

The photograph appears to have been taken in the 1890's with the couple likely in their 30's or 40's and the young child about 5 years old at the time. The second photograph is one of a group of 3 girls and 1 boy, likely a confirmation or school graduation photograph with all wearing ribbons and the girls in white dresses with the boy in a suit. It was taken at the Cherrington Studio with no location identified but has the name Mrs. J. H. KELLER of Dallas noted on the back of the photograph along with Box 533 indicated. I'm guessing that this is Dallas, Oregon. The word "boy" is also written on the back of the second photograph which makes me wonder if the boy in the photograph is a KELLER. This photograph was probably taken in the early 1900's with the four young people in the photograph all in their teens at the time it was taken. Based on limited research I was able to locate the following information regarding this family: John Henry KELLER b. 18 Aug 1864 married Elizabeth HARTMAN and together they had 6 children including, Johnnie Hartman Jr; Bessie; Helen; Velma, Gladys, and Hattie KELLER.

Thought this might be of interest to someone on this list. At Rest Melvin Hayter and Robert Edward Lee Hayter, two members of a pioneer Coos County family, were laid to rest in Upper Fishtrap Cemetery on January 12, 2008 alongside their parents and older sister. They died far from family and friends. Even though many changes have occurred in the Coquille Valley more than six decades since their passing, the Upper Fishtrap Cemetery is probably much as it was at the time of their passing. Based on news stories in recent months regarding the unclaimed cremated remains of former patients of the Oregon State Hospital, the process was started to claim the remains of these early Coos County pioneers and bring them home to a final resting place. It was assumed over the years by later generations that their remains were buried on the hospital grounds. Melvin Hayter was born Feb 17, 1862 in Polk County, Oregon to Washington L. and Sarah C. (Crowley) Hayter.

Hi Grace, It is so good to make your acquaintance! The BEEGLE family (relations of BURTON BEEGLE) were good friends with an older couple at my church. Eleanor and Del ALDRIDGE gave me a handwritten letter belonging to her parents (which I copied and gave back to her) that was written by the PA BEEGLE's (of western PA) to her family. They moved to Kansas together, and then out to ORE. I need to review all of this and dig out the folder and find the book. The name Gershom BEEGLE rings a bell, so probably it was some brothers who went to Western PA? So I am confused........ I need to dig out that letter and copy it for you. My friend is still alive, but up in years but I could give you her number so you could compare notes on your branch of the BEEGLE family. Burton's wife (can't remember which one) wrote a book about her husband's life and family called "Minimum Regrets", of which I have a copy. (I am sure you do too). I have not looked at it for a long time. I did not put any of that information in my data base, as it ended up that the PA/NJ BEEGLE's did not match up with our line from VA going back to THOMAS BEAGLE from ENG to Stafford Co., VA in 1655. but I do have it in a folder for PA BEEGLE's with various resources I have run across in my early days of BEEGLE/BEAGLE research. However........we get asked all of the time since we live in Seattle, WA if we are relatives of BURTON BEEGLE of SPU!!!! He was one beloved professor, that we know. His reputation is large. His picture is hanging on the wall of the BEEGLE Chapel on the Warm Beach Christian Camp and Conference Center. I am sure you have seen it? The strange thing is.........the picture is a dead ringer for my husband's grandfather, Claude Andrew Beagle born 1880's. So it really makes you wonder........?????? My husband, David, says it is like looking at the picture of his grandpa's twin. Who knows???? Thanks for clearing up some of your BEEGLE line. Good to hear from you. Karen Beagle PS We graduated from SPU in 1976. My husband, David Beagle, was on the Board of Trustees for a number of years. ************************************** Get a sneak peek of the all-new AOL at http://discover.aol.com/memed/aolcom30tour

Hello. Just for the record, Professor Burton Linton Beegle was my uncle, and his ancestors were from New Jersey ... not Pennsylvania. Gershom Beegle and Hannah Nicholas (Nicholes) were married in Morris County, New Jersey, in 1803. Their son, Samuel Daniel Beegle was born 26 Oct 1823 in Flanders, Morris, New Jersey, d. 27 Aug 1904(?). Samuel married Sarah Ann Cooper, b. 11 Oct 1824, d. 4 Nov 1886. Samuel and Sarah's son, Edwin Smith Beegle, b. 19 Mar 1851 in Newton, Sussex, New Jersey, d. 7 Aug 1893 in Salem, Marion, Oregon. On 11 Jun 1875 Edwin married Effie Corrine Smith, b. 16 Feb 1856, d. 8 Jun 1927 in Seattle, King, Washington. Edwin and Effie had 9 children, Burton being the youngest, b. 23 Mar 1892 in Oregon, d. 4 Jul 1960 in Kenmore, King, Washington. There may have been (I think there were) other Beegles born to Gershom/Hannah who went to Pennsylvania, but not Burton's branch. I have previously found erroneous data on my Beegles, including Burton, posted on various family trees. It is quite impossible to get corrections, it seems. So I'm just trying to avoid some possible confusion for someone. Hope this helps, Grace Beegle Inman ----- Original Message ----- From: orpolk-request@rootsweb.com To: orpolk@rootsweb.com Sent: Tuesday, July 10, 2007 2:01 AM Subject: ORPOLK Digest, Vol 2, Issue 22 Today's Topics: 1.

The info I just received is as follows: Charles Beagle/Beegle married Hilda Violet Moore. Hilda was the daughter of Charles Franklin and Jessie Layfield Moore Hilda was born 01-June-1899 in Buena Vista, Polk, Oregon and died possible in 1981 in Gold Hill, Jackson, Oregon. I wanted to find out if anyone had any info about this family. Thank You; Shirley in Henrietta, Texas Hi Shirley, I was interested in your query as I have a large number of ORE BEAGLE's in my data base going back to William Thomas Beagle and Virginia Yokum of Jackson Co., ORE (from MO to Ruche, ORE in 1870's.) However, the children list is complete and there is no CHARLES BEAGLE in the descendant chart. I know that there was another line of BEEGLE who came to ORE from PA in the late 1890's. Professor Burton Beegle (passed away) of Seattle Pacific University was descended from this line. I haven't researched this more because it is a different line than ours which goes back to Stafford Co., VA. Wish I could have helped you. I thought for sure I would find a connection with the Polk Co. and Jackson Co areas's of ORE. Sincerely, Karen Beagle, Seattle, WA PS This William Thomas Beagle (above) was the nephew of WILLIAM BEAGLE (my husband's line from MO to ORE in 1843) ************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com. ------------------------------ To contact the ORPOLK list administrator, send an email to ORPOLK-admin@rootsweb.com.
