<DIV><FONT face=Calibri>Hi Walt & everyone - I found this on the Internet.
Interesting reading to me as my family came to Marion Co., OR. and moved to
Eastern, WA. I am always trying to find more connections with my Oregon Trail
pioneers & love to read about all the surnames that are mentioned.
You have probably seen this before but though I'd send just in case. I
think everyone on the list would enjoy reading also.. Mentions
Wheatland. Nancy</FONT></DIV>
