<P>My copy is the 2nd edition, printed in 1969 so I am not sure if the 1st edition title is different or not. I also think that it was a private printing intended primarily for family. As Linda as indicated, coming up with good titles is always a challenge.</P>

<TD vAlign=top>You are so right Linda and I apologize to the family of the Author if I seemed to be implying otherwise, I was merely amused that I who consider myself some what of a student of Oregon history didn't see but one name in the list I had heard of.
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>I am sure this book was never meant for public consumption and if I had known someone on the list would have a connection to it I would have been more circumspect about offering to share it. I can only hope to be forgiven for my sins. </DIV>

<DIV>I know about titling things; I stole my suggested title for my "life story" from Bill Cosby.</DIV>

<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>
