[or-roots] Coos County Land Records/Douglas Co Obits

[Anne Billeter]

Hi,

I would suggest you send a query via email to the library at the Douglas
County Museum in Roseburg.  There URL is:
http://www.co.douglas.or.us/museum/
Click on the "Lavola Bakken Memorial Research Library" and at the bottom of
the page it says:  Email Us.

Good hunting!
