had emigrated across the country and walked through the Coast Range from Roseburg
to Lower Coquille River, only to find that they and their families were expected to

Hello: I read your message and find that Hermiston is close to Pendleton.
Do you, by any chance, remember a Campbell family. Frank Campbell was a
dentist and Rose was a milliner. They lived in Pendleton for many years and
were divorced in 1890. I am trying to find where Frank went after the
divorce. I understand he was writing a history of Utah and lived there in
1921. After that his whereabouts are unknown. His death? Other marriage?
etc. If you have any information, please let me know. Jean Bunch
