Thanks for the correction. 

Walt, I type in bold print as I am going blind and it is easier for me to 
see. Unfortunately not all of us have perfect eyesight.

Wrong.    Your ancestor must have been living in Oregon prior to 1859 - date 
of statehood, last I heard.   Mine were there in 1844 and I got proof from 
Gen. Forum in Portland, OR thru the Donation Land Claim records.
