[or-roots] My Oregon Trail Families - Hugh & William FIELDS in 1845

[cchouk]

Listers:

I found a pair of brothers (Hugh & William FIELDS) who crossed the
Oregon trail in 1845.  William married my gr gr grandfather Capt. James
Blakely's daughter Catherine; she crossed with Capt. Blakely in 1846.

Hugh married a Sidney Younger, but I don't know how her family found its
way to Oregon.  There was another Sidney Younger who crossed the OT
during this decade, but I can find no connection....  yet.  :-)

Good hunting,
Cecil
