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.

John Millican married Mary R. Hayward on 13 March 1870 in the county of Walla Walla, Washington

from the Western States Marriage Index webpage (http://abish.byui.edu/specialCollections/westernStates/search.cfm)
Thereafter, Mary and John were divorced:



And Mary shows up in 1880 with her parents and two of the children, Frank H, and Maude L - note there are two Frank Millicans in Washington, they are cousins, Frank H. Millican was the son of John and Mary, Frank R. Millican was the son of James and Sarah Agee Millican.

Ida F. Walling (Feb 1877, Tillamook, Oregon - 11 July 1944) is the daughter of Jeptha Walling (1833-1905) and Bethair Trask (1945-1905).

Ida married John M. Millican in Tillamook, Tillamook, Oregon, 4 Sept 1898 - below is the marriage certificate and affadavit....

Ida apparently married George Edward Regan, and they resided in Portland until his death in 1942 when he was buried in Lincoln Memorial Park Cemetery, in Portland, Multnomah, Oregon, and she was buried in Mount Calvary Cemetery in Portland, Multnomah, Oregon

Tillamook County Marriages - 1896-1900

I found a link to the OR Genweb project with all the marriages in Tillamook for the above listed years.

Of interest to me was the marriage of Martha A. Walling & Isaiah F. Gould (8 Feb 1896) with Martha being known as "Ma Gould" at least in my research on the topic, however this appears to be a result of her first initials "M.A." which can be seen on her headstone.

Thanks to someone who landed on my page dropping me a line (thank you!), I was provided the info for the divorce of Martha & Isaiah in 1902.

Also, I found the marriage of John M. Millican and Ida F. Walling, though I haven't found her grave yet, he is buried in the Multnomah Park Cemetery.

Sarah A. Hoard & James McCracken - Kansas

I'm posting a truncated thread off Rootsweb regarding the marriage of Sarah Hoard and James McCracken

James: B Dec 1851 - 1920(?)
Sarah: B 1851 - 1915

In 1880 they are on the census in Prarie, Jewell, Kansas and from 1900 on they are in Concordia, Cloud, Kansas.

Their grave can be found here: http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=40...

I believe JAMES H. McCRACKEN & SARAH A. HOARD (both age 21) registered to be married on 14 October 1873 in Jewell County, Kansas. I copied this entry from the Marriage Index ledger at the City Library, Mankato, Kansas, in 2007. The marriage document was indexed to Volume A, p26 in the Registrar of Deeds office at the Jewell Co Courthouse in Mankato.

If Sarah HOARD was a resident of Jewell Co KS:::

In the 1880 Census, the widow Hannar [sic] HOARD & children George & Mary resided in Allen Twp, Jewell Co KS

On the 1884 Jewell Co KS Atlas Map for ALLEN Twp::: W.E. HOARDE & G.W. HOARDE owned quarter-sections of land by my HICKOK in Sections 18 & 19. In the adjacent PRAIRIE Twp::: James R. HOARD, near Randall, KS. Also Perry & John McCRACKEN, near Jewell, KS.
