Been trying to track down the ancestry of my cousin in law Arlen Swearingen and his Dad and sisters are giving me fits. I find Arlen and his Mom and Dad in 1940 in Drain C. C. Swearingen 35 b OR Eyethel (yes, that really is the way she spelled it) age 32 b MN, Geneva 13 and Mildred 12. But 1940 give no clues as to marriage date so I went looking for them in 1930 and have about concluded they dodged that one. In 1910 and 1920 CD is with if parents Ora and Agnes listed as Cortise in 1910 and Cordice? in 1920, but my understanding is his name was actually Cortes which is Arlen's
middle name.</div><div style="font-family:arial;font-size:10pt"><br></div><div style="font-family:arial;font-size:10pt">I saved all of his kin in Drain in 1930 which left about two pages out of my family file. I haven't tried the immediate surroundings of Drain yet, but the one clue I have found is they are lving in "Deerhorn" in 1933, at least according to an item in the RG that talks about Geneve and Mildred returning home there from a visit to Cornvalley.</div>
<div style="font-family:arial;font-size:10pt"><br></div><div style="font-family:arial;font-size:10pt">I tried both Leaburg and Thurston precincts but no sign of them and I don't find a listing for Walterville in 1930 and since ther are some Pepiots in the McKenzie highway listing of Thurston I figure that should be the Walterville area. The McKenzie Hwy prct is up the river at McKenzie bridge I think because there are a bunch of Belknaps in it.</div>
<div style="font-family:arial;font-size:10pt"><br></div><div style="font-family:arial;font-size:10pt">I have obits for CD's wife, father and brother Virgil and something or other relation Archie Morningstar, at least I assume there is a connection since Archie has a sister married to a Swearingen and the Morningstars and Swearingens are neighbors most of the time. </div>
<div style="font-family:arial;font-size:10pt"><br></div><div style="font-family:arial;font-size:10pt">So if someone could direct me to the right 1930 Census I would be very grateful, if I know where to look I can get the image myself if there is one. Of course if someone came up with CD's obit and or marriage date that would be gravy, but I am about ready to write that off. </div>
<div style="font-family:arial;font-size:10pt"><br></div><div style="font-family:arial;font-size:10pt">For as much stuff as Family Search has available now it is amazing how many giant holes I still have
in my family file.</div><div style="font-family:arial;font-size:10pt"><br></div><div><font face="arial">Speaking of Family search folks with Oregon ancestors need to check out some of the stuff on there if they haven't Douglas Co deed index is available and early deeds are too, though I don't think they are searchable?</font></div>
<div><font face="arial"><br></font></div><div><font face="arial">Go down to the list of place names and click on United States and a whole passel of stuff will pop up; scroll down to the Oregon listing and anything with a camera icon next to it is images.</font></div>
<div><font face="arial"><br></font></div><div><font face="arial">I had an interesting time browsing the Deeds last night, found a whole bunch of Melvins there who are not kin as far as I know.</font></div><div><font face="arial"><br>

help I might receive</font></div><span><font color="#888888"><div><font face="arial"><br></font></div><div><font face="arial">Leslie Chapman.</font></div><div style="font-family:arial;font-size:10pt"><br>
