[or-roots] Progress report on 1940 census

[Roy Blaine]

Slightly unrelated, I went on the Napa County, California images on Ancestry, and the first sheet I looked at had the name of a friend of my mother's who grew up with her in Oregon. They went to nursing school together, and this lady was still living in the area when I attended grade school there.  Kind of fun.
 
I went on Family Search and indexed a sheet the first night, just to say I got started.  It was for Astoria/Clatsop.

I was hopeful about the Douglas County families – thought I’d at least be familiar with a certain percentage as I sometimes feel like much of Oak Creek/Dixonville is related to me. <smile>  Just need more hours in my days.

Sue; I got lucky on two of them, I knew some of the families in both the Dixonville one and more particularly one of the Roseburg page entries is I believe in my nieces family and some of Ron Casebeer's kin were on that page too.

I've finished 15 sheets and find it very interesting.  Some frustrations with the handwriting.  It would be nice to index for an ED that you were familiar with.
