I only would like to point out that in the late 1930s there were researchers from the Works Progress Administration taking stories down from pioneers and pioneer descendants all over Oregon, county by county, I belive. Many libraries, at least Douglas County Public Library has theirs, have copies of these
interviews...and some are posted on the Internet. For those who want to ferret out those "big puzzle" Oregon pioneer stories, these interviews are fascinating.
