here with my e-mail.  I'm going to try and send an attachment again.  But
I'll kinda summarize things.  My line of the Dye Family apparently comes
from Wales.

my mother (born Cora Belle Dye) Came West on the Oregon Train (Shee Was
Born in Missouri in 1895.

>I Believe that JOHN DAY is my 12th ggFather. He was an Early Northwest
Explorer and member of the ASTORIA Exploriation (Named For JOHN JACOB
ASTOR.  There is a Town in Eastern Oregon named JOHN DAY and it is on the
John Day River (east fork I believe). I lived in that John Day Area for
about 4 or 5 months. I was a student at Oregon State University Studying to
be a Geologist. Eastern Oregon is basically a High Desert Hot in the Summer
and Cold in the Winter. We lived in tents and ran from rattle Snakes.  It
was a great life !  I will now try to do just one attachment.  Please note
that at no time do my hands leave my wrists.  If the attachment works my
JOHN DAY line fits in just after JOHN DAY born 1537/1544.  I will send that
attachment separately.
