MessageI have John Champion Richardson (1833 MO - ? OR) and Ben Milton Richardson (married 1852 in Lane County Oregon) in my database married to my relatives.  No Reids or Parks.

  I also enjoy the Knight library. Great resource for the newspapers, and their special collections has the Lockley papers and other interesting things, including many "diaries" and such from the Oregon Trail, that I have not seen published.

  Also, I found a Master's Thesis on Mt. Angel -- quite a find there too.

  Now, I've been to the Douglas County Genealogical Society -- I think, it's just off the highway on the east side? But, not to the Library.  I'm looking for Parks, Reids, Richardsons. Do you have any idea if the library would have information that would include them? Except for Reids, they were all gone to eastern Oregon/Washington by about 1870.

    I like to visit the Knight Library at the University of Oregon in Eugene - they have a large collection of newspaper on microfilm so I enjoy finding obituaries.  They also have a large collection of city directories for the state of Oregon.
