<DIV><FONT face=Calibri color=#0000ff>I was at an very old cemetery many years
ago in Columbia Co., WA. where my pioneer families went - lived & died,
Walla Walla/Dayton, WA. & area. I remember seeing a very old
grave & the name <STRONG>Gallaher</STRONG> on a headstone. I
forgot the first name. It was at Smith Hollow or Covello Cemetery?. The
cemetery was not taken care of it's up a a small hill where the farmer was
plowing all around the hill & even getting into the graves - closer
& closer. We walked up to the graves from the road & it was out in the
middle of no where. I can't find that name at Smith Hollow & Covello
online, darn. Next time I'm up that way I will go there & take more
pictures. </FONT></DIV>

for your family graves that went that direction. You never know where
they ended up in the end. </FONT><FONT face=Calibri

Some stayed; some came on to Oregon. If you are doing Whitman Co., WA
