may have gone to Benton County.

In 1940 my family was in Portland but I have no idea what enumeration district, so that is an impossibility for now. I'll wait until I can search by name.  But, can anyone come up with an answer to this:  I was born in Waldport which had (and still does have) a very small population, easily searched. I wanted to find my grandfather.  So I went to Oregon, Lincoln County and looked for Waldport under the list of populated places.  It isn't there.

Huh. Apparently they didn’t enumerate the following: 
  
Kinzua 
Heppner 
Between Jacksonville and Medford. 
  
I think I’ll wait! But, on the other hand, I found my greatgrandfather, widowed, living by himself in Jacksonville. I thought he was living with my grandparents by that time. 
  
This is really fun. Should take me all year to get it all sorted out!

Working on my third sheet, one Dixonville, one Portland and now in Roseburg, wish I could figure out how to pick the pages I am doing.

Kansas 22
