William Tucker Century Farm

Hi-

Two pictures of William Tucker Century Farm in Springwater, Clackamas Co., Oregon. These photos were taken in 1999. This farm house is still in the Tucker family to this day.

William Woodson Tucker (1871 - 1945) was married to two Closner sisters. Emma died at child birth. Laura Closner was William's second wife. They had children in this union.
This family is buried in the Springwater Cemetery, Springwater, Clackamas Co., Oregon.

Douglass Cemetery 2000

Hi-

During the time when I was looking for these Douglass markers, I took a couple of pictures of their location. To my understanding these Douglass' are not tied into my family line. I continue to keep them in the back of my mind in case a fact shows me otherwise.

Family Reunion Time!!!

Hi-

These are a couple of photos that I found in my "to be filed" box. They are a good reminder to those of the DeShazer-Douglass-Howlett-Faubion clans. Next reunion is scheduled for Saturday, August 15, 2009 (3rd Saturday in August)at Cooks Park, Tigard, Oregon.

I always found these photos to be slightly humorous in nature. One is the opposite side of the camera. Ever try to get a group of people to quit talking?

Hope to see you,

Hi-

Bald Peak State Park is on top of the Chehalem hills. There is a spectacular view of the Willamette Valley. Volunteers clean up this park. The photos may not give the park justice since a major wind storm was earlier in May.
