**J. H. McCubbin Obit below Polly's father. I just know I'm (nancy) related 
to J H McCubbin of Lostine and his father William Richard McCubbin. and 
Nancy (Bilyeu) McCubbin, who came from Miller county, Missouri, to Oregon. 
These McCubbins came SAME YEAR 1852 as my James McCubbins from Missouri, But 
I can't find a direct link very madding. so close but yet so far from 
connecting..

**Lostine, Wallowa County, Oregon
Obit.
J. H. McCubbin, who passed away at his home in Lostine on January 31, 1910, 
was well known in that town and throughout the surrounding county and his 
qualities were such as gained for him the respect and friendship of all with 
whom he came into contact. In his business career he won success and was 
honored by reason of the straightforward methods, which he always followed. 
He was born in Miller county, Missouri, on October 25, 1845, the son of 
William R. and Nancy (Bilyen) McCubbin, who came from Miller county, 
Missouri, to Oregon.

J. H. McCubbin was reared on his father's farm and acquired his education in 
the common schools. When a young man he apprenticed himself in the 
blacksmith trade to his brother-in-law, J. H. Brown, with whom he later 
entered into partnership in that business. For about one year after his 
marriage in 1872 he resided in Clackamas county, but in 1873, removed to 
Wasco county where he engaged in farming and did such blacksmithing as his 
few neighbors wished done. In 1877 he came to Wallowa valley where he 
purchased two hundred acres of school land adjoining the town of Lostine and 
subsequently he added to this until his holdings comprised in all four 
hundred and eighty acres. He lived on that place until 1906 when he rented 
the same and moved to Lostine where he spent the remaining years of his life 
in retirement.

On the 4th of September 1872, Mr. McCubbin was united in marriage to Miss 
Marietta Young, who is a native of Clackamas County and a daughter of Joseph 
and Emily (Barnes) Young. Her parents moved from Missouri to Clackamas 
County, where they took up a donation land claim and resided on the same 
until the mother's death, when the father went to Wasco county and there 
made his home with his son Jerry until his death. To Mr. and Mrs. McCubbin 
were born six children of whom four survive: Rebecca, the wife of James T. 
Johnson of Morrow county; Bertha J., who is Mrs. H. A. Kuhn of Wallowa 
county; Dolly E., who is Mrs. F. L. Pearce of Bellingham, Washington; and 
Violet W., the wife of W. H. Kuhn of Lostine. The deceased were: Andrew J., 
who died in infancy; and Mary A., who passed away when twenty-two years of 
age. The demise of Mr. McCubbin, the husband and father, was deeply deplored 
by a wide circle of friends and acquaintances.

In politics Mr. McCubbin was a Jackson democrat and took an active in local 
party work. He served as county assessor of Union county when Wallowa county 
was yet a part of the same, and in 1880 while in that office, was census 
taker of this county. After the division of Union and Wallowa counties, Mr. 
McCubbin was for two term's assessor of Wallowa County. Fraternally he was a 
member of the Lostine Lodge, A. F. & A. M., and of the Anthony Chapter No. 
88, of the Order of the Eastern star, of which chapter Mrs. McCubbin is also 
a member. Mr. McCubbin was one of the foremost citizens of Wallowa County 
and was highly esteemed by all that knew him. He was quick to recognize the 
rights of others and he looked at life from a rational standpoint that 
brought him a clear understanding of the conditions of the world, its 
possibilities and the obligations that rested upon him in his relation to 
his fellow men and in citizenship. Mrs. McCubbin resides in Lostine and has 
a wide circle of friends and acquaintances there who hold her in the highest 
esteem.

Thanks to Gerald (Gary} Jaensch for providing this information.
