[or-roots] Location of the Oregon State Archives

[Babe Fain]

Hello

 

I think that a great idea.  Where exactly is the location of the Oregon
State Archives, is it Salem?

 

Also I am researching the Pickler family who lived in the Portland area
between 1900 and 1940.  

I recently found the grave of Barbara Pickler in eastern Oregon who died in
Portland in 1968 at the age of 16.  I am trying to find out who her parents
were.  I can guess but I would like proof.  Is it possible to get her death
certificate since I may be only a cousin?

You might want to make a trip to the Oregon State Archives and check their
records. You will want to look at the records that OGS looked at to get
their information.

    Have you tried writing to the Penitentiary to inquire about any records
they may have?  You might be surprised!

Hello

 

My great grandfather, James Theordore Robbins was sent to prison in 1896.
In the book, "Oregon State Penitentiary" records of inmates Prepared by
Oregon Genealogical Society, Eugene Oregon, indicates he was charged with
rape from Union County on 6/12/1896; convicted and sentenced to 35 years.  I
can't find any information concerning what happened to him.  He left four
children to be raised by his wife's parent.  She died in 1887.  The
following information is all I have found.

 

Oregon Historical Records

Case# 3681 

Name Robbins, James 

Date 6/12/1896 

Record Type Inmate 

County Union 

Source Penitentiary

 

I would like to know if he died in Penitentiary or if he was released and on
what date.  Any information would much appreciated.

 

Respectfully

Babe Fain
