[or-roots] Bonney-Chastain

[CKlooster at aol.com]

I have been too busy lately to do more than scan the List postings so I  
guess I must have missed a segment.  Not sure how this jumped from Chastain  to 
Bonney.  But...I glanced at the Chastain postings because the name is  familiar 
to me.  The youngest son of Augustus Alvah Bonney, Verl Ross "Pat"  Bonney 
(dob Sept 9th, 1902) of The Dalles, was married twice and one of his  wives was 
Alta Chastain.  They had no children.
 
The other Chastain connection in this family line is Leonard Chastain who  
married Callie Young (dob ca. 1898). I believe that Leonard and Callie  had two 
children, one a son named William.  Callie Young's sister,  Alice Mildred 
Young married Dale Augustus Bonney.  The Young family ranched  in the Wamic area 
but originally settled near Scio/Crabtree.
 
I've never researched either of these lines but simply recorded them as  
family information given to me by "Pat" Bonney's sister and by Alice Young  
Bonney's son.  I'm making the wild guess that the Chastain family must have  been 
living near Tygh Valley or The Dalles around the late 1890's or  1900's.
