[or-roots] Parrish

[Linda Wiley]

Parrish Gap isn't really a place--it was a gap in the low hills where the wagon road went through heading north west toward Salem.  The road isn't there anymore--the modern road runs up the side of his property. Parrish Gap Road runs between Delaney Road SE on the north end, a freeway exit south of Salem, to Jefferson-Marion Road just east of Jefferson.  Play around with mapquest or google maps and you can find it. 


Everything is a long way from Wagontire!

Linda

Always wanted to go there and take a look, but I want to

would that be at 4300 feet in Oregon?

>Edward Evans Parrish is my 3rd great grandfather.  I drove by  Parrish Gap Road south of Salem for years not knowing this!  You put  1884--it is 1844 that he came to Marion County, Oregon near Jefferson.   Adult family members followed after 1850--his daughter Pernina Parrish McClure  and husband Denny Hoge McClure, my second great grandparents, settled near  Knox Butte east of Albany in Linn County in 1851.
