<DIV>This book, "Pioneers of Oregon" was never meant to be a complete study of
all pioneers of Oregon. This is the Oregon Pioneers of just one family -
descendants of Daniel Richardson and allied families. Each of us with Oregon
ancestors could write a book about our "Pioneers of Oregon" -- and each would
be different.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>From experience I know that it is very hard to title a book so the title
is meaningful to the author and family, and is meaningful to a greater
audience, and how will it be indexed and shelved in a library. When you begin
to think of all those aspects, writing the book is the easy part.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Just my two cents . . . .</DIV>

to be far from complete.</P>
<P>I think Sandy Flory's website has a more complete list, also I had
ancestors </P>
<P>that came 1846-1847 -1853 and my Gr. Gr. Grandfather was a Fur Trapper
and Mountainman that came in 1829</P>
<P>His future brothers-in-law were with him Joseph Meek and Robert Newell,
