These all from Ancestry.com. Since you are new to us, here are some other 
sources for you:

The Oregon Death Index (also on Ancestry, but records are in Salem at OR 
State Archives) we have:

Name:    Murchison, Duncan 
County:    Union  
Death Date:    11 Nov 1918  
Certificate:    144  
Hmmm -- a problem here? Probably, perhaps this is Dan? Have to look at the 
record.
