[or-roots] Wagons Ho!

[DanM]

Well heh heh ok.
   I was not just sure how to put it <G>
Back in 1843 and forwards they used wagons to haul goods from town to town.
  This sometimes took a long time to make the circuit if it was big enough.
Fathom this then
Doris Bridge - Antellope - The Dalls - Portland area, down to Dallas,
Applgate - CA some place in Siskiyou CO and back around, how long could this
take on simple wagons ?
  Has any one studied wagon travlers who did this ? What routes, who were
they and how often did they get from place to place.
   This could also be why they were found on census in different places in
those times,some times bording or living with` some one might be the
definition even if it was just a stop over place.

Views ??
