[or-roots] ancestors

[Nancy Lee Adams]

  Jacqueline,
 
My family is also from the Walla Walla WA. area & my older sister lives in
Prescott, WA. I was on the talking with her yesterday & I told her someone
was looking for the Shaw family & Prescott was mentioned, she told me there
is a Harvey-Shaw Road near there.

My family line is the John and Nancy Shaw......they had a son Harvey who
also moved with them to the Walla Walla area.......According to the family
history
<<<Young Harvey Shaw did some gold mining in Southern Oregon and farmed.
Then in 1861 he went to Eastern Washington,  Walla Walla, area.  From there
he
and Frank Lowden ran a packed train from Old Wallula to the kootaney area,
bring supplies to the mining camps in Idaho.  In 1864 William took his
family
and moved to Summerville area near La Grand, Oregon.  Mary Ann and "Cooper"
John also set out eastward and settled with their family on Butter Creek,
near
Echo, Oregon, Umatilla area.   In 1869, Harvey bought acreage west of
Prescott, on the Touchet River,
which grew into a spread of 2200 acres.  Following Harvey, John and Nancy
left
Douglas County in 1870, and bought land seven miles from Dayton, Washington
