OREGON - WISCONSIN
My great great grandfather was John Foster, born Filey, Yorkshire, England about 1803.His wife was variously listed as Ann (in an 1850 Wisconsin census and 1860 Multnomah Co. census) and Elizabeth (in the 1870 Multnomah Co. census).From her age in these censuses, she must have been born about 1813.
From the census data, their children are:
Robertb. ABT 1842Canada
Georgeb. ABT 1844Canada
Williamb. ABT 1846Bradford, Rock Co., Wisconsin
Mary E.b. ABT 1848Bradford, Rock Co., Wisconsin
Hannah M.b. 1850Bradford, Rock Co., Wisconsin
Johnb. 29 Oct 1852Portland, Multnomah Co., Oregon
Benjaminb. ABT 1856Portland, Multnomah Co., Oregon
The son, John, was married to Lucetta Stansbery who was also a very early Portland pioneer family.They had four children, one of which was Arthur Loyd Foster who was my grandfather.
Does this family sound familiar to you?I am just trying to round out some information about them.If you have anything, could you let me know, please?
