[or-roots] Oregon 150

[Broad1000 at aol.com]

Glen, perhaps we will meet at the book release of Oregon 150.  My  family is 
also portrayed in the book.  Our original settlers, Philip  and Mary  
Pettygrove Foster, arrived in Oregon May 1843 via ship from a  6-month layover in the 
Sandwich Isles.  The originated from Maine.   They settled in Eagle Creek 
where their daughter Lucy married Josiah Burnett in  1857, an Oregon Trail 
emigrant of 1853.   Oregon history has long been  an important part of my life and 
I'm hoping to pass it on to my grandson who  just won the grade 5-8 essay 
contest at the Sons & Daughters of Oregon  Pioneers annual banquet last month.  
Keeping the stories and history going  to future generations can be our legacy.
