Thought written on headstone " Tho'lost to sight, to memory dear." OCCUPATION: 1. On June 1900 Census he is listed as a Dairyman. 2. On 1880 listed as Stockholder. BIRTH: Birthday on Ordinance Index listed as abt. 1859.
Death date could be Aug. 24, 1969 instead of Aug 21,1969. Marriage date in obit. is different than what we have. They have Sept. 21, 1917. We have Sept. 21,1918. I have gone to the Archive building in Salem to try to find his Marriage Cer. or Death Cer. but the records were incomplete. Need to go over to Eastern Oregon and search.
