I do not know anything more about Ruth, other than she was my grandmother's sister, when she was born and where she lived when with her parents, via the US census. My father ran off from Portland when he was about twenty into the British Columbia woods, took a new name and had a wonderful imaginary family based on the accomplishments of his uncles and cousins. I only found this "real family" a few years ago, and they know less than I about the family. So I am stuck by the looks of it.<BR>Thanks for the interest and helpful ideas,<BR>Lynda<br> <BR><div><div id="SkyDrivePlaceholder"></div>From: or-roots-request@listsmart.osl.state.or.us<br>Subject: or-roots Digest, Vol 59, Issue 23<br>To: or-roots@listsmart.osl.state.or.us<br>Date: Sat, 31 Mar 2012 12:00:55 -0700<br><br><pre>Send or-roots mailing list submissions to<br> or-roots@listsmart.osl.state.or.us<br> <br>To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit<br> <a href="http://listsmart.osl.state.or.us/mailman/listinfo/or-roots" target="_blank">http://listsmart.osl.state.or.us/mailman/listinfo/or-roots</a><br>or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to<br> or-roots-request@listsmart.osl.state.or.us<br> <br>You can reach the person managing the list at<br> or-roots-owner@listsmart.osl.state.or.us<br> <br>When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific<br>than "Re: Contents of or-roots digest..."<br></pre><br><br>--Forwarded Message Attachment--<br>From: PMML@MERITEL.NET<br>To: or-roots@listsmart.osl.state.or.us<br>Date: Sat, 31 Mar 2012 10:35:56 -0700<br>Subject: Re: [or-roots] Rose Tompkins<br><br>Listen to conversation.

Did she have children? Besides her birth year, what other info do
you have on her?<br>

Thank you for all of your work finding Rose Tompkins'
marriage. Unfortunately, none of them seem right. Her father
was Paul Tompkins, born in Pennsylvania and mother Laura
Hartzell, born in Ohio. Maybe she was a modern woman and just
lived in sin, so to speak.<br>
Thanks again<br>
