Abbotts

Their eyes stare out from their photos for us to see. I'd really like to know what everyone at Multnomah Park looked like, but that won't happen. But, here are photos of a Mother and a Son who are at Multnomah Park. Photos that were identified by someone who took the time to record their names, and photos who have been given from one family member to another. I feel sad when I see unidentified photos in 'antique' shops. It is almost akin to seeing a grave of an 'unknown'.




There has been a request for a photo of Alfred Abbott's monument on Find A Grave. It's not where it is supposed to be. Why, I don't know. He is supposed to be in A, 160, somewhere, but I've not found him there. There are seven other people who are recorded on monuments there, but his is not one of them. We'll keep searching for him though. We have been a bit more lucky with his Mother's monument though. Her's is in Section H, Lot 5-5, nr 1.



The search for Alfred's monument goes on. Hopefully we'll find it as we mothodically continue our work verifying monument locations.
Photos of Alfred and Ruth Ann are courtesy of Kay Weeks.
