Ida F Walling, John M. Millican, Mary R. Hayward & George Edward Regan

This one's been a bit confusing, hence the inclusion here, but hopefully this straightens out a a few other difficulties in the Millican family tree here in Oregon.


John M. Millican was the son of Elijah Ellison Millican (1805 Georgia - 1887 Lafayette, Lafayette, Oregon) and Lucinda Wilson Crisp (1811, Tennessee - 1876, Lafayette, Oregon).

The Millican donation land claim in Lafayette Oregon can be seen HERE.  It includes the cemetery they are buried in on their property as the Lafayette Cemetery near the top.
