Please give credit for the Ramsdell information I post to:  Bible of Thomas Manley Jr., Lillian Dickenson, Del Ramsdell, Metro Pioneer Cemeteries in Portland, OR.

Metro Pioneer Cemeteries office is located at 2115 SE Morrison St., #211, Portland, OR, 503-541-4721.  Their office and records are available for searching but you need to call ahead to be sure someone is there.  The records cover quite a few pioneer cemeteries.  If you need information for an out of the area pioneer cemetery, they can give you a contact person.

  My work is documented with literally thousands of footnotes. Since this is a compilation of encyclopedic proportions, referencing all sources of material is mandatory.

     Connie; This information came to me from a member of the Ramsdell family who I know as a friend and fellow researcher.  The material I post here is meant to inform and help others. However, I have not documented any of the information and I feel that anyone who sells information on a CD should have the documentation to back up published facts.  I have no reason to believe I gave inaccurate information and am happy to share with others what was shared with me. Nancy Hemstreet

            Does your book show a cemetery listing for Agnes Ramsdell who died in 1877?  She was born 30 Mar 1874 to Rev. Thomas Ramsell Jr. and wife, Laurilla Caldwell Ramsdell, a well known family in Yaquina Bay, Lincoln, OR.Nancy Hemstreet

               I found this tidbit in the "Unusual Graves in Lincoln County" section of my book: 
              "Jane Fanno and her daughter, Lucy Fanno, are said to be buried on Ryan Hill near Seal Rock beside the old road. She is the grandmother of Roy, Guy, Ben and Jennie Twombly." 

              Gary in arizona,I am not searching Gleasons    but     My grandfather's middle name is Gleason and I have never figured out why. You also name Smiths.   Well my grandfather's mother was Ellice Smith.   She married James Twombly in Lee, Penobscot County, Maine.  They first went to Pennsylvania, then Minnesota then to Oregon. Lincoln County.Suppose we have a connection in there somewhere?LillianLSchiendel at aol.com
