Previous Married Name:  Elsfelder

Freeport, Illinois		 Died:  April 28, 1946

Notes:  Wife of George Elsfelder, daughter of Charles A. and Fredericka Brandt, sister of Gertrude Brandt Campbell
Ledger Notes:   Age:  73 Yrs., 10 Mos., 18 Days     Funeral:  C. A. Hodson      
The ledger lists her as "Leona", but the correct spelling is "Liona" according to family and census records.
Family Contribution: 
The 1880 Oregon census lists "Liona L" Brandt, 9, born in Illinois, and living "at home" with her mother. 1880 U.S. Census, Cedar Creek Prct, Washington Cnty, OR.   According to her sister Gertrude's obituary in the Sherwood [OR] Valley News (31 Aug 1939), Liona was named as "Mrs. Liona Marks" and lived in Sherwood, Or. 

Liona Brandt was born June 7, 1872 in Freeport, IL.  The family moved to Oregon around 1877, and the 1880 Oregon census lists "Liona L," 9, living "at home" with her mother in Washington County, OR. 

Liona married George Elsfelder about 1895.  The 1900 census lists her and her husband and young son living in Portland, OR.  In the 1910s they lived in Columbia County, OR; by 1920 they had moved to Clark County, WA, where they lived until George died in 1933. 

Sometime between 1933 and 1939, Liona married a man named Marks, and she lived in Sherwood, OR.  According to her Oregon death certificate, Liona Marks, a widow, died 28 Apr 1946, at the Oregon State Hospital in Salem, Marion County, OR, of "myocardial degeneration.”  She had been hospitalized for 1 yr, 8 months.  The certificate notes that her parents were Charles Brandt and Fredericka Weckert, both born in Germany.

Family Contribution:  Fred Martin (husband of Emilie, space 3) was born 21 Feb., 1888 in Grossliebenthal, Odessa district, Ukraine.  His parents were Wilhelm Martin and Friederike Horch.  He emigrated at the age of 11, along with his parents and siblings, to a homestead in McHenry County, North Dakota.  He was married and widowed as a young man, then married Emilie.  In 1914 or 1915 they returned to take over his family’s farm in North Dakota, where they lived until 1925, when they sold the farm and moved to Sherwood.  They purchased land at the crest of Willamette Street in that city, later purchasing the Campbell home and more land in 1935. They owned a dance hall, skating rink, and grocery and feed stores in Sherwood and were chicken and black raspberry farmers. Fred served as a Sherwood City Councilman during the 1940’s. Giving home-building lots to their children who remained in Sherwood, they lived in their large home, surrounded by homes of their children and grandchildren, until their deaths in 1982 and 1983.

Last Name:  McCONNELL First:  Charles Middle:  N.

Lot # :  49

Plot # :  4

 Gender:  M Birth Name:  McConnell
Born:  About 1864 Died:  Jun 1870 -1 ? Burial Date:  June 19, 1870-1 ?
Notes:  Son of James Edward and Urania McConnell.  Here is a case where there is clearly an error in the ledgers that were transcribed in 1907.  Death year and age are the same for Charles and his sister, Susan, but their burial dates are 3 months apart.  This is not logically possible.  In addition, both children are alive in the 1870 census; Charles is listed as age 6 and Susan is listed as an infant.  I am assuming that the information for Susan is accurate and was mistakenly copied to Charles.  The only unique date for Charles is the burial month and day, so those may be correct.  I have a 1980 family narrative (excerpt below) that says that Charles lived to age 7 and Susan to age 4, which means that Charles died sometime in 1870 or 1871 if he was age 6 at the time of the 1870 census. 
Ledger Notes:   Age:  4 Yrs., 3 Mos., 29 Days     Nativity:  Oregon
Family Narrative by Bernice Lavelle Mickelberry in March 1980:
"James Edward McConnell and Urania Jane Gregg were married at the McConnell home by John Boston, Justice of Peace in 1862 in Yamhill Co., Oregon.  They filed on a homestead and lived on that property a short time.  Then they purchased a farm in Clackamas County Ore. and lived there the remainder of their lives.  To them were born Rosie, Charlie, Mary, Lawrence, Susie, Stella, Orin, Lillie and Dollie.  Rosie and Dollie lived only a few months.  Charlie lived to age 7 and Susie to age 4.  Stella worked at the Sherwood Post Office for her postmaster brother, Lawrence.  She died at age 41 of leakage of the heart.  She never married.  The McConnell's and Greggs lived near one another.  James was a scout in the Indian war around Walla Walla, Wash.  He died of consumption in 1900 at age 62.  Jane, (Urania) called Aunt Jane by the community of Sherwood, lived to hold baby Terry Larsen, her first great great grandchild, great grandson of Orin.  She died in 1937 in the old farm home where she had lived for 70 years or more."
