<br>This resource uses data from census, death, probate, and other records<br>to help researchers find information and documents about people who<br>lived in Oregon prior to statehood. Volunteers at the Archives have<br>worked on this project for more than five years. The database currently<br>contains over 105,500 entries for individuals who lived in Oregon prior<br>to statehood. Because of limits on available records and documentation,<br>the project can be defined to include people living in Oregon from 1800<br>to 1860. | <br>This resource uses data from census, death, probate, and other records<br>to help researchers find information and documents about people who<br>lived in Oregon prior to statehood.
