[or-roots] Pickett in Oregon

[Harguess, Dale]

Well, all I know is that I think they probably died because I found my
great grandmother living with a family of Walton's when she was only
three in Minnesota.  She was born in New Brunswick Canada and I suspect
that the Walton wife was probably her mother's sister.  All just
guesses.  I doubt that any of the Pickett's in Oregon were related to
her.  I just made that comment because you mentioned the name Pickett
and it isn't very common.

Dale if you give me time place and names you have for your gram I can
check
it against what I know about the family; there are scads of them in
Wisconsin, as near as I can fathom all kin to my cousin Edwin though
some
question I guess, the old "two (we think)  brothers came" story.

My great grandmother's maiden name was Pickett and I have never been
able to find out anything about her parents other than their names.
Very frustrating.

I actually ran across something I intended to post here the other day,
but
got side tracked and never got there. Seems I have some very distant
cousin
in the Portland area I never knew about on my dad's side. Pickett I
think
was the surname, but can't swear to it.
