Posted on: The SCRoots Forum Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/Sponsor/SCRoots/615 Surname: ------------------------- DERINGER, Samuel Br. Febuary 1864 in Ill. This is according to the 1900 Oregon Census. His wife was Birtha Larm. She claims to have been born in Sweden Sept. 1867. Thier children were all born in Ka. so far as I know. They were Luther(My husbands father) John, Arthur. And another child born in Oregon in 1893. According to the US census of 1900, they most likely left Oregon sometime after Arthur was born in 1887. If you can help with knowing more about this elusive Deringer family, I would appreciate it. Thank you. Bonnie Deringer
