I know that the Sons and Daughters of Oregon Pioneers have certificates
(at least I think they do).  You could check them out on the WEB.  It is
a fairly inexpensive organization.  I think I pay $10.00 a year for dues
and they publish a newsletter so is worth joining, I think.

Hey Les!

Got the dust off the NY trip, found and talked to relatives of Daniel R.

HIP HIP Horrray...you of course was big help.  August 12 and 13 will be
in 
Eugene.  We have to do an eye ball check okay?

I was told my relatives had all died off.....in Eugene, nope they are
PhD 
chemists and went to school with the likes of guys named Nike at the U
of O, 
ran with him on the track team in the 50s.   Blew me away, to say the
least. 
Of course a brag ... hey they are mine!

My cousins living so to protect identity will be left at that.  By the
way a 
word of caution to all of us genealogists and historian buffs.  Identity

theft.  Banks love things like mothers maiden name etc.  So I always
cover 
my folks with "living" .  I love my family, and the last thing want to
see 
is a crime against any of them.  Been doing this now over decade and not
one 
problem but use caution.  Others have been scammed, and that would
really 
make me want to call out the home guard, you don't want to know about
them. 
Smile.

Next after safety is does Oregon have Pioneer Certificates?  We should
start 
one if not.  Illinois does and I have a Pioneer Cert from them by the 
Illinois Genealogy Society.  It was hard work getting all the death
certs 
almost harder than joining SAR.  But it is nice to add and they keep it 
forever in a vault for future.  This also goes into database that
captures 
the true history, not some recount a hundred years after they forgot the

real history.

So Les whatcha doing in August and on those days?
