[or-roots] need newspaper web site

[Dale Harguess]

If you have the ability to visit the Library in Pendleton they have a
fantastic collection of obituaries that are all indexed and there must be
thousands of them.  Someone, probably volunteers cut them out of newspapers
and put them in binders and indexed the names.  I found dozens of my
relatives there.
