Connie and all:
Here is what I have from the 1900 census:
Howery, Daniel Lived in: Elk City Precinct, Lincoln County, Oregon
Series: T623 Microfilm: 1348 Book: 1 Page: 246
210/211 Howery, Daniel; head; w m May 1828; 72; single b. Ky father b Ky mother b Ky
For interest, the neighbors included my cousins:
Leander Parks, by now a widower
Mary Griffith, his daughter
Joseph, son
James H, son
Alice S, daughter (Ollie?)
Luberna, daughter (Luverna, or Verna)
Walter, son
The only Howry/Howrie names were in Washington and eastern Oregon, as I recall.
Dan was gone by the 1910 census. Died?
The spelling I had on my notes on the picture was "Howrie". Now, whether that was from my grandmother
spelling it for me, or my guessing, I don't recall.
I must have gotten the Howery spelling when I found him on a census, or from someone in Elk City.
Are there obituaries? Bev Przybylski, are you monitoring this?
Connie, I'll forward the "web ready" photos to you separately, two of Dan Howery and one of Elk City.
Probably tomorrow or Monday, O. K.?
Pat (back in Tucson)

I have been very frustrated because I knew I had Howery material in my ebook, but couldn't locate a single
passage. Now that I'm reworking the Lincoln County cemeteries, I realize that I was given a different
spelling for the name: HOWRY. Which spelling is correct? I have records to clean up ASAP. I don't like
passing on "wrong" information. Also, Pat, I sure would like that Howery picture! Here is one footnote:
"Ida E. Fuller Calkins Quick, who married George H. Calkins of Harlan, August 3, 1903, was a resident at
Newport Heights Nursing Home, May 9, 1977, when the author's taped conversation took place with her. She
spent Thanksgiving 1976 with her surviving children at the home of her youngest son, Donald Calkins, and
his wife, in Portland. Her other surviving children in 1977 were: Muriel Calkins Howry, Toledo; Mae
Calkins Hoy, Corvallis; and Neil Calkins and his wife Dora, Rathrum, ID. Quick was 92 years old, December
18, 1976."
