<DIV><SPAN class=130272815-19062002><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff>Since I'm
very new, I may have no clue what I'm talking about BUT..... when I talked to
another cemetary, they told me that in Oregon there has to be an "application
for burial" which is maintained by the cemetary and has records of parents,
place of birth etc. I haven't actually seen one yet, so this may be very
iffy info, but it surprised me when she laughed and said "yeah, death certs are
locked up for 50 years, but the burial certs are readily available by writing to
the cemetary itself and paying a small fee."</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

am still looking for info on Thomas and Taylor in Portland area in 1925 and
earlier. I have census info showing them on Mississippi Ave in 1920.
There is a John Thomas living near Portland who is my husbands half-uncle that
we'd like to find.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
