Fantastic, Mary! Do you have the web address for the BLM Land Records site?
Sounds like a valuablle resource. I haven't been able to find the Marion
County census on-line, either. I knew that Rose Harman lived with her
maternal grandparents in Mt. Angel for the 1st grade, but I didn't think the
whole Harman family went there. I'll have to check that out.

Don't think there was a relation to my Harmans there.

MINE.

There was a Catherine Harmon teaching in area schools in 1918 and 19 but
there was another family near Lostine by the name of Harmon.
Probably Not mine.

Greencreek is not too far from Grangeville. Grangeville and
Cottonwood were probably on the map -- Greencreek and Ferdinand had
churches, but were much smaller.
