    Groom: P. A. Cammann
    Bride: Mary J. Mullins
    married 10 May 1882 Reference number: MROR013 Verified: YES

    Note-recorded date is before marriage date. This is curious to me.
    They were married at the residence of Levi Westfall.
    Both bride and groom list Baker County as thier place of residence.

    Lines 11-18 are obviously family since Levi is living next door but I do not have them in my database yet.
    Note that Lot, Calvin, George, Rebecca and William are too old to be Granville and Jennetta's kids. I would guess that they are siblings and only Martha is their child.

    Line 40 MULLEN, G. E. (3/12) male white born in Oregon Reference number: CNOR009 Verified: YES

    Probable conclusion: J. G. is Joseph Mullen, M. J. is Mary Jane, A. S. is Anna True, H. S. is Honora True, W. T. is William True, and G. E. is an otherwise unknown son, father uncertain but likely Joseph Mullen. The 3 older children were fathered by Thomas True.

    Oregon, Multnomah County, State File No. 10982, Registrars No. 3651, 10 Oct 1956.

    Names her father as John True and mother as Mary Westfall. The father's first name appears to be an error. Informant is her daughter Mrs. Agnes O'Connell.

  6. ↑ 6.0 6.1 6.2 Mary Jane Westfall Sweitzer, in Find A Grave.

    includes a photo of her gravestone with the inscription:
    Mary J. wife of N.D. Sweitzer born Oct. 10, 1849. died Jan. 30, 1899. Aged 49 Yrs. 3 Mo's. 20 Days.

    She arrived in Oregon in the 1850's from Iowa.

    Note taken by Ellen B. Thibadeau states Mary Jane was (Westfall) True/Mullen/Cummann/Sweitzer. (and perhaps Caviness too.) Ellen says she died of an ear infection.
