[or-roots] Roll call

[OregonMol at aol.com]

I am ready and willing to throw the following names in the hat:
Michael Travers and wife Ann, called Nan, McCardle Travers both born Ireland 
and in Portland in time for the 1860 census with an otherwise unidentified 
woman named Bridget McCardle who appears only the once. 

Albert H. Gaylord came to Oregon from California about 1888-89 to work as a 
telegrapher on the railroad.  He married Rosa Travers and they lived all over 
Oregon and Washington

Fred E. Merrick came to Portland later, probably 1904, then moved to Medford 
about 1905.  This was a New York family who lived 1 generation in North 
Dakota.

My brick walls are Michael and Ann Travers before they appear in Portland.  
Michael died in December 1882 in Portland while Ann died in 1896 and they were 
both buried in the Catholic cemetery in The Dalles.  The Oregonian commenting 
on Michael's death noted that "he was a pioneer of the Cascades area".
