Believe this to be Homer, b. 19 Oct 1854, Jackson County, OR, d. 15 Jan 1938, Portland, OR; he also married Ida Dement, daughter of George and Elizabeth (Weaver) Dement.Ida d. 5 Oct 1915, age 44, at Roseburg, DOUGLAS CO., OR.In the 1920 census, Homer and his family were living in Myrtle Creek, Douglas Co., OR, with their daughter, Burnita.Known children, probably from second marriage:
A)Madeline, b. 20 May 1901, d. 24 Jun 1909, Myrtle Creek, OR, after stepping on a nail.
B)Burnita A., b. 1906, OR
Looking at Homer's age when daughter Madeline was born (ca 47 years), it appears this is the correct Homer.Would be interested in knowing more about this earlier marriage.
