It is available as a download on Google books and easy to find by googling the author. </font></div><div><font face="arial" size="2"><br></font></div><div><font face="arial" size="2">I didn't do very good at finding things on Google obviously, don't know why I didn't try for a Cemetery in Camas Valley or just the name Trowbridge. I wonder if the reason I didn't find Benjamin is the person posting his page titled it Bejamin? In the genealogy cited above his father is still living and I went looking for him with no luck either and it seems that no one else to date has come up with an answer for that one, I found several recent genealogies that list his date of death as unknown, but maybe they were lazy like me. It seems like with a name like Edwin Going he'd be easy to track down, but no luck as far as I could find, though searching that also brings up the genealogy. </font></div><div><font face="arial"

A couple of weeks ago I opened Family search in my Chrome browser and it was scrambled to the point of being completely unusable. I uninstalled Chrome and cleaned out malware on my computer and reinstalled Chrome and the page is still useless, the only thing I can open normally on family search is the 1940 census page, but when I perform a search there it goes kablooey one me too. The problem is unique to my computer as my son can open the site just fine in his browser so unless it is something with XP it is MY problem. It turns out I can use
Family search in Mozilla just fine, but that means more strain on my resources and more frequent lock ups. </font></div><div><font face="arial" size="2"><br></font></div><div><font face="arial" size="2">But it doesn't stop me from spending too much time on genealogy, just makes me growl more while doing it.</font></div><div><font face="arial" size="2"><br></font></div><div><font face="arial" size="2">Thanks again you are such a great group.</font></div><div><font face="arial" size="2"><br></font></div><div><font face="arial" size="2">Les C</font></div><div style="font-family:arial;font-size:10pt;"><br>--- On <b>Thu, 3/7/13, Sue Steward <i><ssteward@ccountry.net></i></b> wrote:<br><blockquote style="border-left:2px solid rgb(16, 16, 255);margin-left:5px;padding-left:5px;"><br>From: Sue Steward <ssteward@ccountry.net><br>Subject: Re: [or-roots] Speaking of 1903<br>To: "or-roots mail list"

<div><span style="font-size:12pt;">and I find him in
Camas Valley in 1900 census listed as a Widower.
Nettie isn't with her parents in 1900 and I am fairly
certain she isn't in Camas Valley at all and that
would tend to reinforce the idea she is dead. My
question is where did the person who put together the
PAF file come up with 1903. I don't find anything even
remotely to explain it on Family search. Id id find a
Trowbridge Genealogy though and that might shed some
more light if I can find a legible copy of it.</span></div>
