Do you know if the Oregon Genealogical Society  might have information on 
the Brownsville Cemetery?  My husband's great  grandparents are buried there 
according to their death certificates and my  mother-in-law remembers going 
there.  I've not been able to find any  information about their plot.  If I 
knew where they were buried I'd see  about placing a marker on them.
 
    Phares Straub and Margaret  "Maggie" (Hoffer) Straub  They died in 1944 
and 1948.
 
Can anyone tell me if the Oregon Genealogical  Society is interested in 
having information on Oregon Pioneers who are not on  their list?  I note that 
they say the material comes from applications  for Early Pioneer 
Certificates, is that the only way they are  listed?
 
My husband's great grandfather, Stephen Elbridge  Steward, is listed.  His 
wife, Mary Fidelia Hamlin,  and her family  were here in 1866 when she and 
Stephen Steward were married in Coos  County.  Her father was John Lewis 
Hamlin and he was living in Myrtle  Creek, Douglas County in 1866.  Her mother, 
Mary Jane (Bunn) Hamlin  Moulton was living in Coquille, Coos County.   Her 
stepfather, John  Moulton, came to Oregon in 1864 according to "The Pioneer 
History of Coos and  Curry Counties".
 
I also know several who would qualify for  the Early Settlers list.

The Oregon Genealogical Society in Eugene has pretty good information on  
the Pioneer Cemetery (I.O.O.F.).  I was able to confirm where my  
great-grandmother's sister was buried.  She appeared on only one  index as there is no 
marker for her, but the OGS had the plot records that  showed where she was 
buried. 
By the way, if you see a reference in Eugene to I.O.O.F. #2, that is West  
Lawn Memorial Park on Danebo Rd. just off W. 11th. 
Laurel Hill Cemetery is officially Laurel Grove Cemetery.  The  cemetery 
association discovered that it had originally been platted as  Laurel Grove or 
that there was already a Laurel Hill (can't remember which  now - another 
one of those senior moments).  The sign at the cemetery  now says Laurel 
Grove.  However, the cemetery is on Laurel Hill  Road.

Hi,
Lillie died in 1917 and was supposedly buried in the  I.O.O.F. cemetery by 
the U of O.  I have her death cert from the  Archives, but I would love to 
confirm her burial place.
Thanks,
Gail
