This cemetery was first known as Pleasant Hill but was later changed to
Pleasant View when it was discovered that the name was already being used.
We do not know at this time when the name was changed.
Pleasant View was established on or before 1866, It was on the DLC of Moses
Matthew Baker. On his stone it read "Donated the land for this cemetery May
15, 1886"
The Cemetery is 3 acres in size and has approximately 2500 graves. It is
about 4 miles south of Sherwood in the Pleasant Hill district. The cemetery
is fenced and has 3 gates, two of which are locked. The west gate is left
unlocked. This cemetery is still in use. Some graves (probably earlier than
1866) are not marked, but many pioneers in that area have stones. Mr. Taylor
has the Sexton records and they helped to fill in names for the graves
without stones.

Can someone tell me about this cemetery and how to find it.  
I am trying to find any information re: Ida Ohler born in Kentucky and
married to Henry Richmond Baker in Oregon.  Ida had 3 daughters 1)Sybil, 2)
Esther,3) Louise.  I'd like to find the death certificate for Ida.  She is
listed as living in Portland in 1920 census (widow-head of household) living
with daughter Louise Baker and daughter Esther Hamlin/son-in-law Melrose
Hamlin.  
 
Sybil married Mark J. Renne and had a son Marc J. Jr.  in 1919. She was
married to Samuel Bamber when she died in New Jersey in 1953.
 
Louise married a Lennox and had a daughter "Danny" could be Dannielle. 
Louise lived in L.A., Calif. and died in 1967.  I'm looking for an obit for
Louise and I'd like to find her daughter "Danny" info but I have no married
name for her.
 
I have found very little on Esther Baker Hamlin (death obit)
 
Henry's family left Sherwood and moved to Portland where he was a barber
when he died in 1919.
Any help filling in the blanks is appreciated.
