Dale, the other option would be to list the name of the headstone that 
you photographed and perhaps someone in that area would recognize it OR 
search find-a-grave for that name and if it is listed, find the name of 
the cemetery where it is buried.

http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~ormorrow/morrow_county_oregon_cemeteries.htm  
Also many of the Morrow County Cemeteries have been transcribed and you 
might find the name there.
