? abt. Frank Elder> Was he related to a Jennie Elder? I found an obit for Shirley F. Elder Oregonian 29 Jun 1948 page 24. that states his mother was Jennie Elder, and his wife was Ann. I wondered if this is the right family. Sorry, if I posted the wrong way. Thanks, Laura

Subject: [or-roots] lost family?
Buried in the Paisley, Oregon are several members of the Elder family. They arrived here about 1868.
In 1976 a man by the name of Frank Elder was buried here. Also listed on a map is his wife(?) Mrs. A. Elder. There are no more records anywhere in the cemetery system as to who these people are. Or where they came from or exact death dates. We do not have a Frank Elder in our family records, which are rather complete.
I have read Oregon Death Index with no luck.
They have no headstones, either.
Does anyone have a idea who these folks are? We would like to have someone in their family place a headstone or marker of some sort. So sad, they are forgotten by their family.
Thanks, Diane

Sorry to say I don’t know much of anything about Paisley, so I don’t know anything about the surrounding towns.

Pat, I have a copy of the map. I called the only funeral home in business during that time and they had no record, because the people were not local and no one contacted them for a stone or any information. The official records kept by the county taxing cemetery district only have names and the one date of 1976. No town close. 45 minutes to Lakeview and that is closest. Our county only has about 7300 residents and is 110 miles by 110 miles. Lots of area and few people, thankfully.
No Church records either.

Usually there is a “permit to bury” that has to be obtained. Is that what the “county taxing cemetery district” has? Or, is that something else.

Diane,
I love Paisley, and not just because of the Mosquito Festival - - have several T-shirts, too. I will keep this information in my "pieces of string too short to save" file and should I find any hints or matches, will certainly share them with you. One never knows when something will turn up - - and if I didn't believe that, I would have given up long ago searching for my paternal grandfather, John Edward Carlisle, who "disappeared" from the family near Oregon City in 1920 (before I was born). We call it "the mystery of the purple doughnut" and are still searching!

In 1976 the county did not own the cemetery. The IOOF still sort of managed the cemetery. Their membership was dwindling. However a couple of years later much of the downtown area burned, which included those records. I am hoping someone will remember these people. Just so sad their family does not care.
