[or-roots] Cross in Oregon and Wash

Nancy and Les
Well I do not have all the info on the Cross's I know some were in New York and some in Canada, I am expecting to get some more Cross data in the next few days, a former husband of one of my Niece's did a lot of research back in the 80's and seen my website, emailed me and is sending a bunch of info and photos to me.
This has been quite a month had contact with the BIA about a great aunt whos estate has not been completely settled and then my niece's former husband, so will be getting a lot of genealogy info.
