The OREGON-CALIFORNIA TRAILS ASSOCIATION inaugurated the Census of Overland
Emigrant Documents (COED) as a major effort to further the association's
objective of preserving physical remnants of the trails while advancing our
knowledge of the emigrants who traveled overland in the migration that
settled the western United States during the second half of the nineteenth
century.

Dear Marion County Listers,
Need some assistance. I have just got back a copy of the census from the
Archives and they were showing that some of my ancestors (Weinrich's) were
students, and one one laboror, in the town of Aumsville. I have lived in
Oregon all of my life, and I yet this name barely rings a bell. My husband
says that it is southeast of Salem in Marion county. Does anyone out there
know of what might have been a school around the 1895 time? Are there any
cemeteries in Aumsville or the immediate area? They listed their religion
as
Catholics, is their a Catholic church in Aumsville, or where would the
nearest one be?
Appreciate any information and enlightenment that someone out their might be
able to share.

Thanks!

Laura Buffington-Oregon City
