<DIV><FONT size=3>Thank you,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3> Connie is the researcher I hired and she did a wonderful
job for me. From the hospital records both Van and his wife were committed from
Vernonia on Dec 18 1898. Van had applied for a homestead in 1895 but did not
make the five year requirement to prove up the land. He would have been 81 at
that time.ed. He died of la grippe and old age and she of dementia and
seizures.They had three sons two of which I know were living at the time and one
named Samuel who died about the same time. Lafayette lived until 1945 and I lose
Morgan after 1920 both in California. I believe but cannot clearly read the
census for 1895 that they were all living in Oregon on his claim.</FONT></DIV>

Asylum</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>I found reference at the library today to a book on WorldCat
that is about Lone Fir Cemetery in Portland, Oregon. The book refers to names
of persons buried in Lone Fir Cemetery from Dr. Hawthorne's Asylum. It's by
Connie Lenzen (1989), if that's of any use to someone in this
discussion.<BR><BR><BR></BLOCKQUOTE></BODY></HTML>
