<DIV><FONT face=Arial> For 20 years or longer, my cousin and I have been
trying to find 2 people.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Walter J Matney died - intestate ( have probate) no info
on it any use.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT
face=Arial>
1873 fall, some place between Alturas and someplace in Oregon.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial> We are not sure . He and his relation Sam K Matney
( Tule E' Dad ) fought the Modocs and Sam scalped em to show they were not the
only one who could use a knife - this story is on my web page, Walter got a
divorce ( have those papers no info useful) just before he was ( killed or died)
we dont know where - I suspect the Modocs did him in after he went looking for
trouble drunk. * not a fact, just a-thought*</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial> There is no mention any place about a
burial, no place.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Now as for Julia - my suspicions are she died in
Yamhill</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial> Julia Ann Cooper (Matney - Rowe) she was at
the age that if she died as an old lady - she could * have* lived to 1920, she
was married to Rowe 1879. There is no mention of her death in any Oregon archive
I can find unless I missed some thing.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial> So, these are my 2 long lasting brick walls -
</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Dan Matney - Cooper - Rogers</FONT></DIV></BODY></HTML>
