Hi, Washington Cty List: I have been traipsing across the United States, following my great-uncle, the long-lost brother of my grandmother. He, Charles Henry Crandall, born Jan 1867 in Wisconsin, is the son of Clark Green Crandall b NY 1825, and sister of Harriet Emeline Crandall, Born Jan 1871, WI. Last I heard, he'd been married to Phebe (febe, Phoebe) circa 1897, and he was elder at a 7th Day Baptist Church in Cartwright aka New Auburn, WI around 1900. 1910 Census finds him, Phebe and Miriam, and Clark living in Beebe Draw prec., Weld Cty, Colorado. Miriam is age 15. Nothing until I find Charles in 1930 Census, Cowlitz Cty, Washington State, divorced, living in logging town Ryderwood, working for Long-Bell Lumber Co. Then, his death March 14, 1932 and the obit (thank you, Lower Columbia Genealogical Soc for your reasonable and quick response!) says he is survived by a daughter: "...Mrs. C. W. Brome of Aloha, Ore., who formerly lived in Longview [WA] and several grandchildren." I will write for the Charles' death certificate, and Funeral home records, but I was wondering if any census info for 1920 or 1930 might be found. I am hoping and praying this is NOT some mistake, mis-spelling, etc. because I have not had ANY leads, including records of the Seventh Day Baptist Church, in over four years!!! Any help would be greatly appreciated - Robin NW of Chicago

Has anyone ever gotten a copy of his death certificate and sent it to you? If not, please let me know and I will go down to the Archives and obtain one for you myself! It only costs $.25 a copy if we go in and obtain it ourselves, and I live just a few miles north of the State Archives. It might take me a day or two to go after it, but will get it and send it on to you! Beverly

Those of us who live in Oregon, can thankfully go down and obtain the copy as long as we have the date of death and the county, by going directly there, and searching for it yourself and save the cost of the labor. But if you do not live here in Oregon, it is easier to pay for their cost of labor.

There are two "Bethany" cemeteries in eastern Washington county northwest of Cedar Mill - Methodist and Presbyterian. Bethany Pioneer Cemetery Sec#1 1894 Sec#2 1894 Bethany Methodist Church Cemetery Bethany Presbyterian Church AKA Brugger or German Presbyterian (2 pages) (By Alpha) By Row) Union Cemetery of Cedar Mill aka Union Schoolhouse Cemetery is not far from either, but was never known as "Bethany".

Our thanks to everyone who has assisted in the search for 2 Sarahs, especially Shelley and Judith. I am happy to say that my Portland cousin located Sarah A. (Ruble) Darland else where. They had moved after the 1880 census and she passed away shortly thereafter. We do continue to search for Sarah Luvica Darland and efforts are focussed on farm properties owned or rented by George Hamilton Darland in Washington County between 1880 and 1887. Thanks again!
