    2. Judy & Sue
    3. I have information on/am looking for information on these families: MCCLELLAN(D), Robinson G. m. Elizabeth DONALSON Scott County, VA (until abt 1855) Knox County, KY (~1855 --1883) Nolin/Echo, Umatilla County, OR (~1883) Robinson G , Elizabeth and three of the younger children were in Knox County, KY, for 1880 census. In 1883, his daughter Melissa Rosina and her husband, Richard Parks WALLACE, were in Carbon County, WY, where their fourth child was born. The next two children were born in Umatilla County. Two of Robinson's daughters married Richard A. DOZIER (son of William "Cap'n Billy") Dozier. First Sarah, in 1872, in Knox County, KY. After Sarah's death, and after Richard Parks WALLACE's death, Melissa Rosina married him in 1917, in Multnomah County, OR. (although they were both living in Clackamas County by then). William DOZIER had three wives, Marinda Jane DISNEY, Mary J. PAYNE, Elizabeth Grant CALDER. The first two marriages were in Knox County, KY, and the last in TN. Only Elizabeth came west. Besides Richard A. (mother Mary J PAYNE), a daughter, Sarah Holland (mother Marinda DISNEY) married George Fleming BURNETT in Knox County, KY, and by 1880 they were in Umatilla County, where their last three children were born: Charles Henry, Sarah Isabelle and "Maggie". By 1898, Sarah Isabelle was in Clark County, Washington,where she married William HIGDON. William DOZIER's children by Elizabeth CALDER were all born in Umatilla County; Mary Lenore, married Charles Edward DUPUIS in 1888 in Pendleton, Umatilla County. They had nine children, all born in the Pendleton area, as far as we know. I have almost no info on the other sons-- William Alexander and John Neil -- or his youngest daughter Elizabeth Virginia. The MCCLELLANs, DOZIERs and DUPUIS' all served the Nolin school board in one capacity or another in the period 1890-1910. Robinson G's daughter Margrette married Charles William PARROTT in Knox County, KY, where their children were born. They moved to Umatilla County at some point (probably 1883-1889). I will be in Umatilla County next week, looking at the country, looking for history and, as always, looking for dead relatives (although the live ones are more fun to meet!). I am Robinson G.'s 2nd great granddaughter, through his daughter Melissa Rosina and her first husband, Richard Parks WALLACE. Regards, Susan Wallace Masse
