EARLY MARRIAGE RECORDS By EARLY MARRIAGE RECORDS CLACKAMAS COU?JTY WASCO COUNTY OREGON By TUALATIN CHAPTER DAUGHTERS of the AMERICAN REVOLUTIO!-l OSWEGO, OREGON 1960 FOREWORD This book contains the ftrst recorded marriage records .that were filed in the Court Houses of Clackamas and Wasco Counties of Oregon. Some or the records are for mp~r1ages solemnized as early ea 1848 and a great many of these marrisges took place before Oregon became a state (1859). These records were all hand written by the Recorder or his Deputy and in some cases extremely difficult to reac. Care was usec in this abstracting and when it was impossible to determine excctly what the Record­ er had intended more thei11 one spelling of the name is given. Those using these records must keep in mind that often the person writing the record spelled the nar.1e as it sound ea to him. On some the notation "5¢ U. s. St~'?lJ) affixed" or "101 U.S. Stamp affiaed" or" 5~(10¢) U. Sa R.(Revenue) Stamp" followed the rer-m!ar recorc. Y!l'. David Duniway, State Archivist, pr~vieed us with the following refer­ enee which eXFlei~s this te....~: United St&tes Statutes at Lar~e Chapter 119 1 Schedule B, approved i 3uiy 1:62, Vol. 12, p. 480 "Certificates of eny other description than those specified, 10¢." This was changed to 5¢ by Chapter 74, Sec. 6, epproved 3 Mar. 1863, p. 720. It nppears again at 5i in Chapter 173, Schedule B, approved 30 June 1664. This was part of s ts.x levied to help finance the. War between the States.

  • Columbia River Valley. 7Rom ?He Zalles to the Sea
    HISTORY of the Columbia River Valley. 7rom ?he Zalles to the Sea By FRED LOCKLEY Volume I Illustrated CHICAGO THE S.J. CLARKE PUBLISHING COMPANY 1928 FRED LOCKLEY as FOREWORD There is a great human interest story in the valley of the Columbia Rivera romance of early mythsof Indian life and loreof the dis-. coveries of explorers by land and seaof settlement and empire building. There can be no doubt as to the importance of preserving the early records of this district in permanent form.Historians have already recorded dates, census-takers have tabulated the increase of population and works of reference abound. But I believe there is a field for another sort of historynot one of mere facts and figures, but one full of human interest.Since boyhood I have been interested in the stories of pioneers and of pioneer life.During the past quarter of a century it has been my good fortune to meet and talk with thousands of pioneersto inter- view them and to record their experiences in the columns of the daily press.It has seemed eminently fitting to gather the information thus gained into a more complete worka summing up of thousands of per- sonal contacts and to portray in graphic form the motives, difficulties and achievements that have combined to make the Columbia River Valley what it is today.I hope that this work may help to perpetuate the memories of those who contributed to the upbuilding of the Oregon Country and may prove of interest, not only to those of us who are here today, but to our successors, who shall continue to build when we have passed on.I appreciate to the full the work that has been done by previous writers and all I can hope to do is to supplement what they have done.

  • Columbia River Valley
    HISTORY of the Columbia River Valley 5'rom he 2a lies to the $ea \/olim' 11 Iflustrated CHICAGO THE S. J. CLARKE PUBLISHING COMPANY 1928 BIOGRAPHICAL HENRY WALTON GOODE The record of no business man of Portland has stood in larger measure as a synonym for honor and fairness than that of Henry Walton Goode.A spirit of marked enterprise ever characterized him in his business career and carried him into a prominent connection with large and important undertakings, and yet through all he maintained a spirit of fairness that won him the respect, admiration and enduring loyalty of employes and contemporaries alike.Long acquaintance with him meant stronger friendship, for his life in all of its various phases stood the test of intimate knowledge and of close association.His name is indelibly engraven upon the pages of Portland's history through his connection with the Portland Rail- road Company and through his service as president of the Lewis and Clark Expo- sition. A native of Indiana, Mr. Goode was born in Newcastle, September 26, 1862, a son of Walton and Lucy (Beck) Goode.The father was of English descent and the lineage could be traced back in direct line for over nine hundred years, the family in America being the Goodes of Virginia, one of the leading aristocratic families of that state.Walton Goode died when his son Henry was but seven years of age, but the mother is still living and is yet a resident of Indianapolis. Educated in the public schools, Henry W. Goode entered the high school when twelve or thirteen years of age, and the record which he therein made was the highest in his class.At the age of fifteen years he left school to accept a position in the business world.Without the advantage of a college course he was largely a self- educated and self-made man, learning many valuable lessons in the school of experi- ence and becoming in time a man of wide and comprehensive knowledge.
