Records show one child born at Polk Co in March 1876 and 5 deaths (of Diptheria) here in October 1878. These 5 children are all buried in the family cemetery here. My greatgrandmother had two more children born after that, one in 1879 and one in 1883... Burtons were one of the 1st 3 white families to settle along the Salmon River Area.
I believe the story goes this way: Greatgrandmother was home alone on the place with the five younger children while her husband and the older ones were away in the valley [Willamette Valley]. The three older boys would have been 17,15 & 13 according to the records I have. The children at home got diptheria and all died..."
