EDWARD  L.  BROWN
SPANISH AMERICAN WAR VET
1869 ---- 1948
Date Surveyed:   10-09-06 Surveyor:  C. Lehan

Last Name:  Brown First:  Frankie Middle:  Louisa
Lot # :  70 Plot # :  7 Gender:  F Birth Name:  Bell
Born:   June 12, 1869 Died:  Apr. 8, 1896 Burial Date: 
Ledger Notes:    Not recorded in the ledgers.
Family Contribution:  Frankie was the wife of Braxton Brown and mother of a 4-year-old son. Her father is J. D. (John Dennis) Bell in Lot 70 Plot 5. Her mother is Emma Taylor-Bell-Christensen in Lot 70 Plot 6. Mary A. Bell in Plot 2, Coloma J. (Not "R")Bell in Plot 3, and Infant Bell in Plot 4 are her siblings. Thomas McKee Bell in Lot 51 Plot 8 and Martha "Mattie" Boyse in Lot 51 Plot 10 are Frankie's cousins. Mattie was my great grandmother's sister. She, Minnie Frances Boyse-Masson, is buried in Champoeg Cemetery. Thomas' father, Franklin Bell, is also buried in Champoeg Cemetery. J.D. Bell's parents, Robert and Levina-Conner Bell, are also in the Champoeg Cemetery. One of J.D. and Franklin's sisters Eliza Bell-Case married William Case of Champoeg in 1878. Eliza is buried in the Philip Foster Cemetery with another sister, "Mattie"'s mother, Emma Jane Bell-Boyse and her husband, John McKee Boyse. Andrew J. Bell in Lot 115 is another brother to J.D. Bell and Baby Edna Bell is his, also.

Source:  I inherited a "Time Capsule" scrapbook with original newspaper articles, weddings, and the obituaries of all the above stated people, and SO many more. My 2 greats grandmother, Emma Jane Bell-Boyse kept it from the Civil War to 1938 when she died. I inherited it, and another scrapbook covering the WW2 years of Sellwood, kept by my Aunt Virginia Still-Garkie and over 500 photos of my family.

My 2 greats grandparents, Emma Jane Bell-Boyse and John McKee Boyse came and settled in Wilsonville in 1874 from Hamilton, Hancock Co., Illinois. He operated a sawmill and flouring mill at Wilsonville. By 1879 her parents and all siblings followed. They are all in the 1880 Federal Census in Pleasant Hill. I would love to see a plot map of exactly where they lived if one exists !! Robert Bell operated a mill at Boones Ferry.

My genealogy website - SherriDuree.com - - SEE "My Mother's Family" button - Bell and Boyse from maternal side. I am a retired RN and since 2001, genealogy has been an extensive full time job on both maternal and paternal sides.
