[or-roots] Cottage Grove etc - Ansil Melvin Cross

[Nancy Lee Adams]

Hi Glen & Les,     I will number each generation.

I did some checking on my Cross family starting with the parents of 3
Micajah Cross Sr. were, 2 William Cross (son of 1 Israel Cross) was born Abt
 1788 in Maryland, and died August 23, 1860 in Dewitt County, Illinois. He
married Charlotte Compton December 10, 1806 in Adair County, Kentucky,
daughter of Banner Compton and Catherine Wilson. She was born Abt. 1789 in
Virginia, and died March 20, 1860 in Dewitt County, Illinois

3 Micajah Cross Sr. born June 14, 1818 in Russell County, Kentucky; died
September 28, 1896 in Dayton, Columbia County, Washington.

4 Micajah Cross Jr., born March 26, 1861 in Iowa and died March 18, 1945 in
Oakland, Alameda County, California.
He married Alice McCubbins November 15, 1881 in Columbia County, Washington,
daughter of Samuel McCubbins and Sarah Stevens. She was born January 02,
1864 in OR, and died October 06, 1942 in San Joaquin County, California.  
Samuel & Sarah Ellen (Stevens) McCubbins are my gg-grandparents.

4 Oscar Cross, born December 1880 in Washington & married
Son of Oscar Cross & Leona V. Flanagan was 5 Archie Bee Cross Walla Walla,
WA. 
Leona Flanagan was the sister to my grandfather Delmar in Dayton, WA.

So much I could write, lots more siblings I could have wrote, maybe later If
we connect, but I think you can read where this Cross family came from. I
hope it helps.
Nancy

Nancy and Les
Just got a package of genealogy info today from the ex of one of my nieces
it has info on the Melvin name in it, will take sometime to go over it all,
will also be getting info on a wagon train that some Cross's and Roe
families were in coming to Oregon.

Hey Les
How is the weather in Cottage Grove, it is turning white here in East
Portland and it is not snow, glad both my vehicles are 4x4.
My Cross's are also from the midwest Iowa down through Nebraska and my wife
has Cross's in her family from the same part of the country, have not put
the two together, YET.
They are all listed on my website for my family, or I should say the most of
them.
