No success on Laura, but on Ida, we have:

 

Name: Powell, Ida 

County: Umatilla 

Death Date: 28 Mar 1938 

Certificate: 82 

Spouse: George

 

Ida, Dorothy and George appear on the 1920 census of Linn County. Ida is divorced.

Dorothy is 4 11/12, when the census was done on 3d and 5th January, 1920, which gives her a DoB of about Feb 1915.

 

Unfortunately the Oregon Death Index doesn’t have DoB’s much for deaths as early as the 1930’s.

 

And, I don’t see any Oregon Marriages after 1920. 

 

If you think she was married in Umatilla, you might write to the Court House there and ask. Once you have a married name, you can go from there.  If she married at age 16 or 17, she would surely have had parent(s) permission. Or have gone over to Walla Walla like my grandmother did when she was 13 and needed to get married.  Washington didn’t have an age requirement at that time.

Hi, I posted a few days ago, but haven't seen it come up. 
I'm trying to track this lady.  I had her, her mom, Ida Mckinley, brother, George William, and an uncle, Walter Pugh on the 1930 census for Pendleton, OR.  I believe the dad was George b. Powell.  I can't find what happened to dorothy.  The mom d. 1938, brother, 1995, the uncle, 1955.  I've been on the OR. archives, the LDS, the Umatilla co., site, and a bunch more.  I think she married, and died in 1933. Any ideas????  Thanks,  Laura
