[or-roots] Trip to Oregon

[Cole, Sherry]

This is wonderful information and thank you so very much. I couldn't figure out what happened to her but I didn't think of looking in a National cemetery.
Interesting that Audrey was a member of the Wilsonville Historical Society! I had already contacted that society in Wilsonville but the person that knew everything and everybody passed away recently.
I haven't been to Oregon yet, 9 more days and then I will be there.  I'm trying to get my act together and gather up my notes and my rain gear!

bye now and thank you again.
Sherry

 Can anyone help me find Audrey Putteney. Not sure of the spelling of her
last name. The name popped up in Wilsonville, Oregon but just the last name.
She was the daughter of Inza Wood from Wilsonville.  I have searched the
Oregon cemeteries and Family Search web site.
Thanks, Sherry
