Well I am not sure which of the Lee donation land claims that I would need
other than the one for the Philander Lee families in Canby and his was the
original and then his sons had them also. See my web page it has a copy of
the map link below. No I do not have the donation land claims for the
Philester Lee, Philomen/man Lee, Philinda Lee/married 1st John Harvey Green
& second James Terwiliger after arriving in Oregon and he already had a
donation land claim and was the 1st blacksmith in Portland amoungst other
things. I do know where the other Lee's claims where and have left the
gathering of that info by their descendants.

Canby history I am up on. My Grandmother Ora Melvina (Lee) Cattley was the
1st Queen of the Clackamas County fair.
Her Father the 1st Mayor of Canby Heman Allen Lee and it was he and his
father that had set the width's of the streets to turn a wagon and mules
around in. They still maintain this width with in the city limits today. My
other Grandfather Frank Eber Dodge built the 1st of the wooden hulled Canby
Farry boats on the Willamette. Built several of the main street "cement" or
brick, stone like buildings in the down Town area of Canby and the "Spanish"
style Church found there and was the original Methodist Church.
Thank you for the info on the Wagon Train. On this trip with the Lee/Green's
there was no stop in Salt Lake at all. Route of trip is very detailed in
Anna Harvey (Green) Lee's diarys of the Trip and she later added to the
diaries with more detail in her latter years.

This is what I know. The Bradley's Lee's and Leabo's were all connected.
The oldest boy of James Bradley, Furman
Bradley was a Wagon Master, ( looking for right term). He came to Oregon
very early. They ran a wagon train from
Ohio, to Iowa to Salt Lake City, to Oregon to K-falls to California to
Arizona and back again. The Lee's were in
Mo. with the Leabo's happy hunting. Do you have a map of there origional
Land Grant here in Oregon.
