1844 EMIGRATION: OR Trail-Email Nov 2002, Connie Clapier [Ann M Kennedy of Austin TX]: "Moses Eads arrived in OR in the winter of 1844 with other members of the Eads family. They came on the wagon train headed by Cornelius Gilliam.
The train arrived at the Whitman station at Walla Walla WA (OR Terr) in Nov of 1844 and went on to Oregon, floating their goods down the Columbia River arriving at Oregon City. Moses settled in the Willamette Valley and lived in Yamhill Co.
He is reported to have gone back to Missouri after the death of his first wife, but a second marriage record is found for Moses again in Polk Co OR. Most of his children stayed in Oregon and took up homesteads.
Jan 1955 letter from Roy L Eads to Mary Marks, Eads doc #83. On the back, to George M Eads, Superior Wyoming, from Mary Marks: "My grandmother was sick and doctor ordered her West, so my grandparents, his brother, Moses and family came west in second wagon train from Missouri in 1844. After Moses' wife died, he left his family and went back to Missouri...
Hattie [Gnos of Otis Ore] says there used to be a Rufus Eads around there before her time, also a girl Roy's father raised, that had lost her parents crossing the plains,'Narcissa Jane Marlow' and she is Hattie's mother's mother or her grandmother...
On the other side-Roy says:"...as near as I know 4 boys and a girl. The oldest Isike Eads, Rufus Eads, Silisa Eads, Solemon Marion Eads, my father. I do not know where the girl came in or her name."

HIST: Nov 2002 email from Connie Clapier pg 2: The wife of Moses Eads (Nancy [Lucy] Walker) is mentioned in a book by Charlotte Martheny Kirkwood "Into the Eye of the Setting Sun" found at Hist Soc of McMinnvile OR, pg 105:
"I remember Elvi (Elvira Eads) who stepped thru a hole in the ceiling when Father Waller was holding meeting. She belonged to a large family. They were from the South; honest folk, but simple. Lucy was the mother of them all and I remember her best. Twice a year she came to visit us, and exactly twice a yr Mother returned her visits.
"I can see Lucy very clearly as she used to come thru the woods path, knitting as she walked; simple old Lucy in her queer little bonnet. She alwasy wore a large handkerchief with a gay border folded in half cornerwise across her breast and pinned at the throat. She was tall and very, very thin but straight as an arrow. There was a certain stateliness about her in spite of the long limp calico skirt that wound and twisted about 1 foot, only to unwind & twist in turn about the other foot as she walked. Her bonnet was crudly fashioned out of one square piece of cloth. The front was doubled back & casings run to hold the thin splints of wood,. This part fastened around her head & tied under her chin while the back was sewed straight up the back to form a little peak. When freshly starched, the peak would bob& nod as she walked-if not, it hung dejectedly to 1 side or the other, or to the back as the case might be. I fancy that it reflected something of her state of mind, for Lucy was not always happy. She was very homely, but Mose (Moses Eads) was sometimes jealous of her & people said that they quarreled bitterly. She was a good neighbor to us however, & kind to everyone.
So Lucy would come to our house; her knitting in her hands, a goose quill sewed in a bit of cloth pinned at her waist to hold her extra needle, knitting as she walked.
They moved away though, and when I saw old Lucy again they had just taken her out of the creek. Still wearing her queer bonnet, she look pitifully old & thinner than ever. Her sodden calico dress, streaked with mud, clung to her legs & lay crumpled over her sunken breast. She was quite dead."
She & Mose had been on horseback, coming to our house. The spring rains had carried the creek out of its banks. Mose crossed first & rode on without looking back. No one ever knew just what happened--perhaps Lucy's horse stumbled or floundered into a hole-they only knew that presently Mose saw that the horse that followed was riderless. Some hours later, Lucy was taken out of the creek."

PIONEERS of 1844: "Eades, Mrs,: m'd EADES, Moses; helped with Sager baby until they arrived at Whitman Mission; described by the fastidious Narcissa Whitman as "a filthy old woman." See "The True Story of the Sagers."
