<DIV dir=ltr>Did it increase your knowledge of the trail?</DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr>---==---</DIV></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Some times I wonder if there is room for improvements
lol:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>I wish it was an original, not an 1988
copyright.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>I do have a 1918 one, I will be compiling soon, the pages
have not all been cut loose, I was wondering? Is this going to lower the values
of the book as an old book or not.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial> I can sort of see whats in the folds, but not all
of it. I was thinking to get this online would be better than worry about the
value because I don't plan to sell any way.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>My cousin is married to a Parrish, I sent another cousin
the question to the genealogy since not all cousins have computers.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>I did a few questions out here where I live on the desert,
I ask.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>" do you do much on the internet?" _ answer_ 8 of 10, *
HUH?"</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>" I ask- do you know about the Us Gen Web, rootsweb or
Genealogy ' most, said NO."</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>This was a 3 year for fun questions to locals, I have
about 300 family people in the Santiam river area, maybe 5 online. I have only
one cousin online we do genealogy, mainly Rogers and Matney. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial> I have only increased the wish to inform more
people of the things I might help with. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Maybe more will see a reason to get online. I have 40
acres and a few animals this was all about the pioneer what I am doing here, it
was to find out, for a sample, plant corn,enough for a family and water it and
take care of it to find it gone ( eaten) and gather a small piece of what they
might have emotionally experienced loosing a crop, same things with veggies and
sunflowers and other things, In August, 2009, on the 7th, there was a storm, it
froze the whole garden, flooded the place, froze 3 foot high tomatoes in the
green house type porch. It hailed, snowed, sleeted, rained really hard, and I
got pictures of what was left. Every thing we tried was in line of what
some one getting off a wagon train ( out here ) would experience. (( except ))
we had a few tools a couple old camp trailers and a garden tractor and a mini
RV. We have made a shelter, a kind of shop thing, a 12 foot long root cellar,
dug some holes of no apparent use yet, just looking for fossils, found some
items of fish and snails, I think, the increase in knowledge is the indulgence
one does with understanding the reason one wants the knowledge and that is ( the
facts ), not the ability in these days, we can do better.... I spent many years
working in Portland, I have the knowledge of the modern city, I was knowing my
grand father shortly, not me real one, but a step grand, wonderful people the
Martins, had a place near the rouge river, they lived the old ways, when I was a
kid, I was all over their things because I never seen them before.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial> After all the studies of the pioneer people, I
wanted to try it, still trying, each thing was a trying of having and
experiencing demise if the coyotes got the chickens, or the goat got loose and
planned to stay loose, gardens being impacted by weather, to much wind, to hot
in the summer and to dry, what can one experience in the desert and still want
to stay? ( Peace )</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>I also admire the Golden Pioneer on the
capitol.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Its my mentor lol;D</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Some who stayed, some who left, some who
died.</FONT></DIV>
