  I am looking for an obit or write up on the death of Daniel Ryan - my grandfather's uncle.

  I received the following from a lady in Baker City and would like to follow up on it:

    The Weekly Bedrock Democrat
    Monday, June 1, 1896
    page 6
    Baker Co. Library microfilm collection, reel # 312

    Died at Grants Pass

    The intelligence has been received here of the death of Daniel Ryan, a former resident of Baker City, whose demise occurred a few days ago at the town of Grant's Pass, Southern Oregon. Mr. Ryan at one time owned some suburban property here.


  Daniel died 21, May 1896. The story my grandfather told what that Daniel had been set upon by thieves and murders while hauling freight. However, he said it happened in Baker Co. This is apparently wrong according to the above excerpt,

  I would appreciate help from anyone having access to old newspapers files in Grants Pass that could look this up. I live in Medford but can no longer drive to Grants Pass or I would come over and do the research myself.

  Thank you
  Carroll (Cooper) Summers
