Hi Ellie, Yes I am in Portland..Have lived here since John and I married in 1960.  John was the son of Edythe Wadley and Harold Ticknor.  I have lots of dates and information from Oliver and Edna on down.  Nathan died March 21, 1946 in Portland, Multnomah county, Oregon and is buried here. His wife was Martha Amanda Newman.  she was born Jan. 15, 1853 one mile north of Bloomville, Seneca County, Ohio and died May 1936 in Portland.  You have all their children listed.  Paul died close to two years ago with Cancer.  His wife, Mabel is now in a nursing home after falling and breaking her hip. Her memory is getting very bad so will probably stay there. I live just blocks from their house and about a mile from the nsg home so am sort of the one who looks in on her and keep track of her nsg problems since I am a retired RN. She has grand nieces on her side of the family, who also
see her often.  John's cousin, Dick Wadley, (William's son) takes care of her affairs.  John's mother, Edythe is the only one of the kids left.  She is 91, living in her own home on the golf course of Woodburn's retirement community
and plays golf whenever the weather allows.  My daughter and I just got her a computer and she is dying to learn how to do emails She is supposed to be doing some memoirs for my daughter. It is really getting late so will look forward to hearing from you soon. Where does your family branch off from ours.....Will love to exchange
information with you.....Belva
