Just did a bit of checking here. Mary Jane (Gallaher) Richardson’s brothers Morgan and Justin Gallaher, and Justin’s daughter Cordelia were living in Frenchtown, Lower Dry Creek, and Ritz Precincts, Walla Walla, Washington, in 1900.

 

Is this near the area you are speaking of?

I was at an very old cemetery many years ago in Columbia Co., WA. where my pioneer families went - lived & died, Walla Walla/Dayton, WA. & area. I remember seeing a very old grave & the name Gallaher on a headstone. I forgot the first name. It was at Smith Hollow or Covello Cemetery?. The cemetery was not taken care of it's up a a small hill where the farmer was plowing all around the hill & even getting into the graves - closer & closer. We walked up to the graves from the road & it was out in the middle of no where. I can't find that name at Smith Hollow & Covello online, darn. Next time I'm up that way I will go there & take more pictures. 

 

*Don't forget to check out Columbia County for your family graves that went that direction.  You never know where they ended up in the end.    Nancy
