[or-roots] John Wesley East

[Leslie Chapman]

So you are looking for his descendants then?
Phillip the email I addressed to Sherry I posted to the list also for two reasons, one so others would not duplicate my effort and also so others might be aware of resources that they didn't know about, or someone else might have an interest in that line.
That is our general mode on this list unless a reply involves personal matters or a great deal of information. 
Are you after descendants alive today?I assume some of these are your people;

This is probably a grand child;

There is also a Delbert that dies at age 19 in Lewiston that might be his son, but lists Viva Swan as mother. In 1910 they also have an Alfred in the house. two more names from 1880

I am searching for relatives and information of John Wesley East and wife Elizabeth who emigrated to Polk County, Oregon about 1840. John is my third Great Grand Uncle, His father was Ezekiel East and his mother was Elizabeth Worsham East of Pittsylvania County, Virginia. I have extensive information on both families going back to the very early 1600’s.   Thanks,  Phillip W. East
