<DIV>I am appealing to anyone on this list who might have any information about
the people listed here who are buried in Milliorn Cemetery in Junction City,
Oregon.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>This cemetery is very close to the edge of what is now High Pass Road
(slated to be upgraded in 2009). I am putting together as much information as
possible about those buried there -- real pioneers of Junction City. I am
in the process of putting together the history of the cemetery and bios of the
people to present to the Planning Commissions and Councils that might be eager
to wipe out part of the cemetery to please developers.</DIV>
