Hi Glen -

    Yes, I have done a ton of research on our Baileys.  Clear back to England in
the 1500's.  My 10th ggfather came over around 1640 and settled in Rowley, MA.,
not far from Salem.  I've been back there and saw the site where he first settled
and built a house.  They slowly moved west, one grandfather in the Worcester,
MA area, then to Illinois and Kansas.  My great grandfather was killed in an 
accident in the Bellevue, KS switching yards.  My grandfather, James Benjamin (Ben)
Bailey and his brother John were born in Leavenworth, KS.  They headed west to
Oregon.  My dad was born in a sod hut in Hoxie, KS way up in the northwest corner
of the state.  They continued on to Portland, where uncle John stayed and worked
for Union Pacific RR until he died.  Grandma and Grandpa went on to Roseburg where
he was a postman for a zillion years.   They are both buried in Roseburg Memorial.

Where do you live in Portland?  We are just off Burnside and 113th, on Pine Court.

   Glen
