[or-roots] Pioneers of Oregon

[LinLouVan at aol.com]

This book, "Pioneers of Oregon" was never meant to be a complete study of  
all pioneers of Oregon. This is the Oregon Pioneers of just one family -  
descendants of Daniel Richardson and allied families. Each of us with Oregon  
ancestors could write a book about our "Pioneers of Oregon" -- and each 
would be  different.
 
>From experience I know that it is very hard to title a book so the title is 
 meaningful to the author and family, and is meaningful to a greater 
audience,  and how will it be indexed and shelved in a library. When you begin to 
think of  all those aspects, writing the book is the easy part.
 
Just my two cents . . .  .

I must say the book Pioneers of Oregon appears to  be far from complete. 
I think Sandy Flory's website has a more complete list, also I had  
ancestors  
that came 1846-1847 -1853 and my Gr. Gr. Grandfather was a Fur Trapper and  
Mountainman that came in 1829 
His future brothers-in-law were with him Joseph Meek and Robert Newell, and 
 there were many others that 
do not show listed in the Pioneers book.
