[or-roots] Fields; Tkhomas George et al

[Leslie Chapman]

Laura;

Have you tried the death index?

I don't have access to it past 1030, but you can probably find it at a local
libray or Fam History center.

For your great grandfather is one of these him?

Name				Death Date		County	Certificate #

Fields, William Henry	14 January 1929	Union			7

Fields, William		08 March 1913	Union			1279
Fields, William		11 December 1906	Josephine		2444

There is a John Fields in Crook Co in 1900 who may be the one you have an
obit for; Wife Ida, son Fred? 4, dau Polly 2 and son Nelson 1.

TJ is a possible match;

he is single, a laborer and literate etc

ch Freddie, Polly and Nelson 14, 12, 11

George Fields born abt. 1864 and brother Thomas Fields born abt. 1868 in
Oregon
On abt. 1934, John Fields obit says he has brother, Robert H. Fields(my
ggrandfather) surviving. I can't track George or Thomas after 1880 Linn co.,
OR. William Fields and Elizabeth Carter are the parents of these brothers.
Can anyone help me, please.  I'd appreciate any advice.  Thank you,  Laura
