bates in Oakley

durffam — 21 Nov 2006 3:49:16 GMT

Hi,
Where are you from? Are you familiar at all with the Cassia County area? I live in Almo, just across the mountain from Oakley. Junction is just an "area" now where area ranchers run cattle. It is probably 20 miles from Oakley and from Almo. It is at the "junction" of two tributaries of the Raft River----which is a pretty small river that runs through the area. Marsh Valley is a term that is more commonly applied to Albion, which was the first county seat of Cassia County. Don't know if there was an area towards Oakley that was called Marsh Valley. I agree with you that probably some of the impetus to move to Idaho came from polygamy. Our family history indicates that Rosel and some of their family just grazed farther and farther north until they finally made it to Oakley.

I haven't done a lot of research on the Bates family. I do know that there were Bates in Oakley other than my Grandma Effie Bates Hunter. We are descended through Cyrus Wakefield Bates and Harriet Matthews. His brother was Ormus. My daughter just moved south of Tooele. It was fun to see a major crossroad called Bates Canyon Road as we drove through. I think that the Cyrus Wakefield came from Wisconsin where they joined the LDS Church and consequently came to Utah. One person I contacted claimed that he had been in contact with some of the family who stayed in Wisconsin. Apparently their old dog had been left behind but he took off trying to follow them. He couldn't make it and came back sometime later. The family was really sad when the dog came back. It made the leaving really final. Be glad to share the little that I have on the Bates famly.

Hi,

I'm researching the burials in a cemetery in Klickitat County, WA. One is for a death that occurred in Cassia County. I am including here the obituary I found from Goldendale, WA., but I'm hoping for a photocopy of a newspaper article from the Burley area regarding this truck/train accident. According to the Idaho Death Index, Paul died Oct. 31, 1932 at Burley.

The Goldendale Sentinel, Goldendale, WA., November 3, 1932, page 1

PAUL MESECHER KILLED IN TRUCK SMASH

Word was received yesterday of the death of Paul Mesecher, a son of Mrs. Alice Mesecher, of Spring Creek, which occurred Tuesday this week at Mobley, Idaho. The details of the death are not complete. It is understood Mesecher was riding with a companion in a truck, which was hit by a railway train. The accident so injured Mesecher that he died.
Paul Mesecher was 39 years of age, a twin brother of Harry Mesecher. He has been living with his family in Idaho for the past couple of years. The remains were shipped from Mobley and are to arrive this evening. The funeral will occur Friday at 2 p.m., at the Chapman chapel, and will be under the auspices of Louis Leidl Post No. 116, American Legion, of which post deceased was a member. He leaves his wife and a nine year old son, Howard, in the immediate family.

-------

On the photocopy please include the newspaper's name, the issue date, and section and/or page # of where the article(s) appeared. I am will to pay a reasonable fee for assistance.

Thanks,
Jeff Elmer

SSDI - Mystery - Edward F. Droughan

droughan1 — 21 Sep 2003 2:34:06 GMT

Looking for any information on Edward Francis Droughan (s/o E.F. Droughan and Elizabeth Haley) who is listed in the SSDI...

Born: 12 Mar 1918 (actual date 10th)
Died: Sep 1984
Last residence: 83318 (Burley, Cassia, ID)
Last benefit: (none specified)
SSN: 384-03-6466
Issued: Michigan

This is a real mystery. I sent for the application, and then sent for the death certificate. The State of Idaho could not find a death certifiate for him. I contacted SS office, and they said his state of death and that the information regarding deaths is "usually" provided by the funeral home. Naturally, they couldn't provide me with anything specific. Can't seem to find any other record of him except in the SSDI. Any body have any ideas? Thanks. Sylvia Droughan
