I did not know there was a Dorena Historical Society. Where exactly are they are located and do you know if they have regular 'open' hours? Maybe they have some information I am not yet aware of.

I don't seem to be able to get in touch with the Cottage Grove Historical Society. I've stopped by their location when they say they are open but no one is ever there, and my phone calls/messages have not been

Thanks... I appreciate your offer.<br>
I have the court papers from the trial of the Southwells for the murder and am still transcribing them but a cursory read through didn't shed any light.<br>
No, I'm not living in Cottage Grove any longer... I am now on a small acreage that is part of another 3x great grandfathers (Frederick Thiele) DLC in Oakland, OR. One of George's sons married one of Frederick's daughters.
<br>
There were Clark DLC all along what is now the I-5 corridor from about Rowriver Rd. almost to Creswell. The Rowriver was named in honor of my 3x great grandfather and as a result of his murder.<br>

<div><font size="2" color="black" face="arial"><font size="2">Looking for any information re: the death,

I primarily would like to find an obituary from a Cottage Grove, Eugene, Salem, or Portland newspaper. The<i>
