<DIV>I will be going to the Portland, Oregon Library later on this week and
would be willing to look up the obits in the Oregonian and can email you a scan
copy of what I find. Please advise if this is OK. </DIV>

<DIV>To GFO Listers and to Candi: These are the responses so
far.<BR> <BR>============================<BR> <BR>>From
Candi: (Maise is the name)<BR> <BR>They are my cousins, born in
Chicago. let me check--I got their deaths from the OR death index--from an RAOGK
up there, but I cannot get an obit from the library without paying $15.00 each.
OUCH. <BR><BR>I do this for free for folks, so i hate to pay myself.
tight.<BR><BR>Lawrence Charles Maise b IL died June 19, 1974 in
Portland<BR><BR>wife Bernadette Berna O'Neal b Il died February 12, 1980
Multnomah County, Oregon<BR><BR>son Lawrence Thomas Maise died October 25,
1981in Multnomah County, Oregon<BR><BR>I feel quite certain they were all
related to my mathew maise, b IL, and if I could just get an obit, I could
verify that and find some more descendants for my cousin Doug Maise.<BR><BR>I
haven't researched much in OR, and I need to know how to do this!<BR><BR>Thanks
if you can suggest something.<BR><BR>Regards, Candi in

Listers:<BR><BR>------------------<BR><BR>That is easy They are indexed at
the main Portland library, also the <BR>index has been micro filmed and I think
there is a copy at the Forum. <BR>I have one here so will go and look and see if
I can find any one of <BR>that name listed and get back to you. Of course not
all Obits were <BR>indexed if they were news items they may have been
missed.<BR><BR>Janice M. Healy<BR><BR>-------------------<BR><BR>Oregon

Witthans<BR><BR>-------------------<BR><BR>Unfortunately, the Portland papers,
like many larger cities, don't carry <BR>obits of other than well known
people. BUT, most deaths are included in the <BR>Death &
Funeral notices section which is at the beginning of the
classifieds. <BR>Of course, you need a death death to begin with
because they are not included <BR>in the index referred to above.<BR><BR>As Dave
mentioned, full names and some dates might be helpful. At least then
<BR>the Oregon Death Index can be checked for dates &
places.<BR><BR>Daraleen<BR><BR>-------------------<BR><BR>Oregon Historical
Records Index<BR><BR>The above referred to index only includes names found in
county or state records. There are NO newspapers at the Oregon State
Archives.<BR><BR>Daraleen<BR><BR>-------------------<BR><BR>Howdy,<BR><BR>
I thought I would throw my 2 cents worth in the pot!<BR> <BR>
There were aprox 30 people in Chicago alone on the<BR>1930 census with the last
name of Maise. There were<BR>other people in IL in 1930 with that last
name,<BR>outside Chicago.<BR><BR> I searched OR on the 1930
census and there was<BR>only just one Maise and it was Mary Maise who
was<BR>listed as a mother-in-law to the head of house she was<BR>living with and
his family. The wife of that head of<BR>house would then be Mary Maise' daughter
Alice. The<BR>last name of that family she was with was VanFleet.
<BR> <BR> Mary was listed as 68 years old and widowed on
the<BR>1930 census and was listed as born in Wisc. Her<BR>parents were born in
France. <BR> <BR> Maybe other people with the last name of
Maise<BR>moved to OR after 1930 possibly? Maybe there last name<BR>got mispelled
when they came here? There is not one<BR>single solitary Maise in the OR death
index. <BR><BR> Is this Mary connected in any way possibly?
<BR><BR>
Nathan<BR><BR>----------------------------<BR><BR> Hi,<BR><BR>
I made a couple boo boos! I said in my previous<BR>message that there was only
one Maise on the 1930<BR>census but there were actually two. A Joseph
Maise<BR>from Italy lived in Klamath Falls in 1930. <BR><BR>
The other boo boo was that there were three people<BR>with the last name Maise
in the OR Death index. I said<BR>before that there were none. I'm slipping!
Sorry. <BR><BR> There was a Lawrence Maise in the Soc Sec
Death<BR>index who died in Portland who got his Soc Sec<BR>application
originally from IL. He died in 1974. Maybe<BR>he is related
somehow?<BR><BR>
Nathan<BR><BR>--------------------------<BR><BR>I'm not sure if the name she is
searching has the 'S' on the end, or she's <BR>using it in the plural. There are
no MAISES deaths in the Oregon Death Index, <BR>but I do find three entries for

<BR> <BR>Though there may not be a full obituary, there should be a death
or funeral <BR>notice. The newspaper index covers only the full obituaries, the
notices aren't <BR>indexed. This should give her a starting place, if this is
family she's <BR>searching.<BR><BR>Julie Kidd<BR><BR><BR>==== ORFORUM Mailing
