Frederic SETTGAST is correct.
Matilda's death cert [4-13-1953 Multnomah] should also confirm parentage.

1880 Willamette Slough, Multnomah OR
SATGIST
Fred. 38 Mecklenburg
Phebe 32 "
Carrie 10 W. T [Wash. Terr]
Frank 5 OR
dau 4 " [enumerator wrote over the name, but has to be Matilda]
Jane? 2 OR
Ludy 1 [Louis]

Phebe d 1880-1896

1900 Washington, Washington OR
SETTGAST
Frederic 57 b 4-43 Ger; m 3y; emi 1867
Anna M 47 b 9-52 Russia; emi 1890
KECKLER, Minna 10 b 9-89 Russia; step dau
SETTGAST, Bertha 1 b 6-98 OR; dau

The reason I'm convinced this is the right person...
Minna KECKLER was also enumerated 1900 in the house of Matilda ERWIN, step-sister.

I have the b/d-dates for Admiral Japtha ERWIN's bros, if you need them.
============================
I feel fairly confident this is Walter's family, as he named his dau Melissa, after mom????

1870 Madison, Scioto OH
ERWIN
James 29 OH, farmer [1840-1922 Columbus]; parents b PA
Melissa 30 OH [1840-1910 Scioto]
Robert 9 OH [1961-1931 Clark Co OH]
**Jeptha 4 OH
George H 11/12 OH [1869-1949 Scioto]
----------------
Kendall 1876 - 1939 Columbus
Clarence b c 1878, prob Columbus
Mary 1881-1942 Columbus
[1880 Walter was still using Jeptha]

1-19-1860 James IRWIN m. Melissa FINNEY, Scioto Co OH

James is the s/o Robert ERWIN/Elizabeth WALLACE [his death cert say f/John, but this is incorrect, as DC of his siblings state Robert, as does the bio below]

Malissa is the d/o J FINNEY/Mariah PERRY

You can fidn death certs for the above..labs.familysearch.org

HISTORY OF SCIOTO CO OH 1901
William C. Erwin was born in Harrison township, Scioto county, Ohio, November 30, 1866. He is the son of Robert Erwin and a great-grandson of Robert Erwin, who came to Ohio from Pennsylvania. He was of Irish descent, and settled first in Scioto county, near Portsmouth, at Jeffordsville, and removed from that place to Madison township about 1835. His son, Robert Erwin, was one of a family of eight children, as follows: Andrew, Samuel, Margaret, Robert, William, Ellis, **JAMES and Julia. The mother of our subject was Hulda Rockwell, daughter of Jonathan and Martha Brown Rockwell, from New York and Virginia respectively. The paternal grandmother of William was Elizabeth Wallace who died in Madison township, at the age of eighty-four. Robert Erwin, the father of William, was a soldier in the civil war, in Company F, Ninety-first 0. V. I. He entered the service August 22, 1862, and was mustered out with the company June 24, 1865. William spent most of his boyhood and youth in Madison township, where he received a common school education. He worked on the farm and attended school until 1890, when he engaged in business in an installment house at Columbus for about one year. He spent two years as a conductor and motorman on the street railroad at Portsmouth. In the spring of 1893, he removed with his parents to Harrison township. In 1899, he commenced the merchandise business which he still continues. He was Clerk of Harrison township in 1901 and 1902. He is a republican.
