[or-roots] Mary Ann Northrup

[Leslie Chapman]

Dale;

Having trouble here, I cannot find any of these folks in 1860 on Heritage
Quest. I find a John Shaw age 65 b VA
Mary 56 Ohio, Sarah 16 Ill, Marvin (sp?) 22 Ill, With three Nales children,
Hariot 6, Sarah 4 and Maria 3, the first b. in Ill and last two Oregon, I
find no John and Nancy Shaw in 1860 or 1870, No Northrups in Douglas County
either time except Wm and Mary that Sue mentions.

I do find the Howells in 1880 in Umatilla County, but no sign of them in
1870 or 1860, from 1880 his father is from Tennesse and only two of them in
1870, he isn't there, so must be with a sibling. Or whatever, found one of
their neighbors in 1880 in the 1870 Umatilla census, no sign of Howells.

What a frustrating bunch. None of them show up in Doug co cemetery index. I
can drop you in my pursue this at the courthouse file, but I haven't made it
to Roseburg in a long time.

Well, I give up, there are a whole bunch of Shaws in Oregon Archives index,
but no Nancy.

Where did you find them in 1860 in Douglas County so I can go there and see
them, maybe I can get some ideas from where they are.

I am trying to find anything I can about a Mary Ann Northrup who came with
her mother, Elizabeth Northrup and her sister Adeline and her grandparents
John and Nancy Shaw to Douglas County about 1852.
Elizabeth was a widow at the time but after she came to Oregon she married a
Francis Marion Vliet.  She died after having two more children.  Her sister
Adeline married Stanford Howell in Douglas County but I can never find Mary
Ann/Marian after the 1860 census.
If anyone out there has access to the Oregon State Census' perhaps they
could help me find what happened to her.
Thanks,
Dale
