[or-roots] Look=up at OSU Knight Library

[Kith-n-Kin]

Before anyone in Eugene can, probably, find these obits, you will need a date and location for Hicks.
Sorry to say the indexing at Knight leaves a great deal to be desired by "us genealogists" - of course,
they are really trying to educate those kids, so who can complain <G>.  Anyway, I looked Joseph up in the
Oregon Death Records and didn't find him. This is what I found for (first) the years you gave, and (2nd)
all the Josephs.

Best of luck.

Is there anyone in Eugene wiling and able to do a couple of old newspaper look-ups at the Knight/ Assuming
the newspapers are available.

I would like to have an obit and/or article in the Baker City newspaper for a Daniel Ryan who died 21 May
1896. He apparently was killed by thieves while driving a freight wagon (as the story goes as told by my
grandfather).

Secondly, I would like to find an obit for Joseph Wesley Hicks who died between 1905 & 1910 in Douglas or
Josephine Co. He lived in Myrtle Creek but may have died in Grants Pass.

Thanks for any help.
