Martha,

Our family lost track of a young woman who came west to OR about 1850/54.

RACHEL EMMONS b. abt 1836 Lonedell, Franklin Co, MO
supposedly married a SCHRUM or SHRUM very young and left for OR never to be
heard from again.

Jim(?) SCHRUM of MO - Lots of SCHRUMS went to OR, this I know.
Not sure of this first name.

JAMES/JIM CREWS b. abt 1851 Lonedell, Franklin Co, MO. Another we can't
find anywhere. Maybe he came west with his brother, Robert?

Thanks
Pat
