Re: Burley

DScott500 — 2009-06-08 15:13:35Z

From what I could find out it was four men who helped found Burley. They were Josiah E. Miller, William T. Jack, W. L. Burton and S. H. Hayes. It was originally named Commerce but later changed to Burley in honor of a passenger agent for the Oregon Short Line Railroad named David E. Burley.
I couldn't find anything on Bernard Farr.

Thanks for the response yes I know Carolyn Anderson she is my aunt. Yes they were big in potatoes and with Ore-Ida. We just don't know much about my great-grandfather Albert (Shorty) Anderson. If you know of someone who may have know the family earlier it would be great. I would love to know.
Thanks

Re: Albert Anderson

ANDERSON IS A BIG NAME IN BURLEY/OAKELY. I GREW UP HEARING THE NAME OFTEN AS MY FATHER WAS IN THE PRODUCE(POTATO) BUSINESS. I MIGHT EVEN BE RELATED TO ONE OF THEM. ONE OF THEIR DAUGHTERS IS CAROLYN TAYLOR (NO LONGER MARRIED) BUT STILL IN BURLEY I BELIEVE. IF I CAN BE OF FURTHER ASSISTANCE PLEASE LET ME KNOW.

WILLIAM ROPER

robertcarmody60 — 2009-05-29 21:06:36Z

Bill was a hero of mine. My mother worked many years for "Mr. Roper" and I did during school breaks. He ran a tight ship and always insisted that the "help" stay busy and if nothing else to do, then"sort the socks" Look busy!!! His son Jim is a good friend also. Jim's wife Betty died a few years ago and left a big hole in his life. He is still in Burley at last count.

I am not sure when the Bates came to Idaho but I have found that
Erin Lafayette Bates, Sr. died in Oakley in 1897. Were your people
also from Tooele, Utah? Why did they go to Oakley?

Anyone who may have any info about him please contact me I have hit a brick wall. He was connected to the Anderson's who were know for their potato farming with the Grigg bros. who also started Ore-Ida.

Hi Janis

If I find out anything I'll let you know but as I live in England I have to rely on people in the states to find info for me. I'm hoping living relatives will spot the surnames posted and fill in the gaps on the American side of my family tree.

Regards

Re: Looking for William Orchard II

RBestrom7380 — 2008-05-13 06:56:50Z

Many genealogy researchers respond with research on families being sought on the message boards. But, without SOME information on the person such as date of birth, place of birth, parents, siblings, etc., these postings are pretty much ignored.

If you desire some help, post as much information as you might have on these persons. Another question, if they lived in Southern California, why are you posting in the Cassia County Message Board for the State of Idaho?

My Aunt, Bertha Skaggs, was born in Kentucky May 19, 1894. She married Thomas H. Rose and later divorced then married Ezra Fairchild. She died in Burley on May 29, 1949. My family does not know what cemetery she is buried in or very little else about her life there. If anyone can tell us anything, we would be grateful. Marilyn Ferguson

Re: Albert Anderson

2006-09-23 15:23:41Z

I don't know the town in Sweden where he came from but I would love to talk with Tom. I can get his phone number from my mom. Are you a cousin of his? I know Aunt Ora was a Martin. I have a bunch of papers that I can mail him with different census on them. I t would be easier that way. I appreciate you taking time to answer me. I didn't know my g-grandfather although I knew Albert Jr. & Ora well.
Thanks

Re: Albert Anderson

2006-09-23 05:16:46Z

I don't know if they have an email at home. Tom's wife has an antique store and I think she has one there but I don't know it. I do have his cell phone but hate to put it out over the internet. If you want, you can email the census info to me and I will see that he gets it. Do you have the home town in Sweden that Albert "shorty" came from? Tom told me that he thought that someone in the family had found it but he didn't know what it was. I will be going to the FHL in Salt Lake this winter and I would be glad to look up any records that are in his home town, if you have it. Thanks for answering.
