<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Pat,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> I believe you are thinking of the
Museum that has a research library in Douglas County. The genealogical
society is in the courthouse basement and the public library is right next
door. They are not that large but they are pretty good at Douglas
County as well as the courthouse is right there. The people in Douglas
County have always been so kind and considerate as well. I'd forgotten
to mention the museum which has a nice photo collection and great resources
as well. Having so much of my family in Douglas County has given me a
fond spot for doing research down there <Grin>. </FONT></DIV>

and their special collections has the Lockley papers and other interesting
things, including many "diaries" and such from the Oregon Trail, that I
have not seen published.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

think, it's just off the highway on the east side? But, not to the
Library. I'm looking for Parks, Reids, Richardsons. Do you have any
idea if the library would have information that would include them? Except
for Reids, they were all gone to eastern Oregon/Washington by about
1870.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I like to visit the Knight Library at the
University of Oregon in Eugene - they have a large collection of
newspaper on microfilm so I enjoy finding obituaries. They also
have a large collection of city directories for the state of
Oregon.</FONT></DIV>
