[or-roots] Probate? Not WA. Correct is Dayton, Oregon

Wed Dec 21 10:40:06 PST 2005

Hi Gary,

For Susanne I was talking about Dayton, Columbia county, Washington.(BUT I'M
WRONG) It's OREGON...You are right!!

I live in St. Helens, Columbia county, Oregon..I see I'm the one who miss
read, sorry!! Suzanne did mean Dayton OREGON, my goof up, I will try & read
better next time.

Yes, the St. Helens Court house has a room full of books, binders & you name
it to research land records & such. 
I have been in last summer for someone on Oregon Roots & found the land
record he was searching for.

I know there is a town of Dayton, Oregon & did you know that Joel Palmer
founded both towns of Dayton in both Washington & Oregon?
But my family is from Dayton, Columbia Co., Washington. I have now really
confused the issue.. I'm sure <G>

I don't mean to confuse but the Dayton Washington Memorial Library also has
all the Original newspapers & etc. I go there every year in my research of
more family information.

Sorry Susanne, My mis-stake..   Dayton, Oregon, Dayton, Oregon, Dayton,
Oregon, Dayton, Oregon, Dayton, Oregon : )

Thanks! Nancy

HI:  HOPE YOU don't mind me sticking my nose in here.  what county are you
talking about.  i went to the courthouse in st. helens about 3 years ago and
they have hundreds of binders in one room.  i went thru a lot of them and
got so much info. you wouldn't believe it.  you can mark each binder and
photocopy whatever you want.  hard to believe all that info was there.  i
was interested only in land records and what a bonanza.  i also went to the
library in hillsboro and found, in the little gossip column when and where
my mom was born.  along with her brother and four sisters.  she had told me
how much she weighed when she was born but i guess i really didn't believe
her.  there it was in print:  16 1/2 lbs.  she really was a big'n.  some of
the newspapers they had on film but the ones i wanted back to 1916, when she
was born were all original newspapers.  interesting day and i have my cousin
to thank for all of it.  i just noticed you are interested in a washington
county.  sorry, all of this came from oregon.  there is a dayton down near
mc minville and thought that was where you were interested in.  although
dayton, oregon, i believe, is in yamhill co.  well, maybe this will help
someone.  there is also a logging museum in vernonia, ore. that is loaded
with memorabilia and lots of pics.    i'm not quite that old but i do
remember when the trees were huge.  i used to ride with a log trucker.  one
tree would fill the back of the truck.  all that they are logging no a days
look like telephone trees with bark.  sorry again, i should have read all
that you wrote.

Suzanne,  

My grandfather (Flanagan) (his mother a McCubbins) & my mother both born in
Dayton, WA.  Since you have mentioned searching back to Dayton, WA., please
let me know other surnames in your family, If I can help, I will : )   Lots
of Clarks in Dayton. Even the Henry's I'm related to through marriage of my
mother's cousin, Archie Bee Cross.  I don't know much about the Henry's
though..they are related to the Cross & Patrick Families of Eckler MT,
Dayton, Columbia Co., WA.

I got lost in the e-mails..sorry!  What was Richard Frank Clark wife's full
name (maiden name) who has been traced back to Dayton where Richard was
born?

Thanks! Nancy   St. Helens, OR.

Oh my gosh!  I knew you guys would be able to help.  Thank you so much.  I
will try the Simpsons and also see who she lived with in Dayton.  How very
odd that it lead back to Dayton, the town where Richard was born!

thanks

Sue,  I believe most libraries have a reference book called a "reverse
directory" which lists occupants by address.  Used to use it all the time
when working in residential real estate.  Some times they are a year or so
out of date however.  Regards   Jim  Minneapolis
