B. Dawson and Mary Belle Watkins 1920 GLENDALE, DOUGLAS, OR; WATKINS, Mrs. A.R., 58, Wid. OR SC IN, housekeeper; with brother Levi, her dau Mary Belle, and son William FAMILY HISTORY BY JOYCE NAIL PEIL: Rebecca was born 17 MAR 1862 somewhere in the Wilamette Valley. She was pretty and popular, expecially with the boys. She was married to an Ed Dawson and had one son, Willie. They were divorced and she was married for a short time to John Redfield by whom she had a son Harvey. The baby died before he was a year old and is buried in the grave yard on the the old Sether place. She later married a William Watkins. They had a daughter, Mary who was born March 13, 1897. Bill Watkins did not care for young Bill Dawson and put the boy in a reform school when he was in his teens. The famil lived in Roseburg until Mary was 10 to 12 years old. Uncle Billie died and Rebecca and Mary moved in the Grandma (Mary Ann) and Levi where they remained until after Mary Ann's death. Mary grew up and married Le McCarn and moved to Idlwyld -- on the Umpqua River where Lee managed a fish hatchery. Aunt Becky died there in Roseburg in the hospital May 16 1927. Rebecca caused Mary Ann a lot of worry before she married and settled down. I remember one time Grandma walked down to the lower place with a letter she'd received from Rebecca. She wanted Mamma to read it for her (Mary Ann could read print, but not long hand). When Mamma finished the letter, Mary Ann signed and said, "She had caused herself more heart aches than I can stand." As I remember Aunt Becky she was a soft spoken person but with a decided opinion on everything. She was a fine cook, and an accomplished seamstress. When she was a young lady, she excelled at making beautiful button holes and was called on to make them for others at so much a botton hole. She did beautiful crochet work and embroidery and was a big help in making the linderie for my trouseau.
