Gene,

Do you know if Oscar William Peterson is related to John August 
Peterson?  Perhaps brothers? John was born 1869 in Sweden and came to 
Benton County, Oregon at age 1 year with his parents.  He is pictured 
seated in front of Nettie Gault and Nona Reynolds Strake, on page 112 of 
the book "The Land That Kept Its Promise".  John and Nettie were married 
about 1898, their first child was born June 1899.  I don't know what 
year the photo was taken, but presumably, since Nettie is still using 
her maiden name, it would have been no later than summertime, 1898.  
Nona's name is given as Strake, but that must be incorrect.  Al(bert) 
Reynolds is also in the photo.
