These include searchable databases and on-line cemetery links
At the same time, volunteers were found who were willing
to coordinate the collection
of databases and generally oversee the contents of the
webpage. The Oregon
GenWeb Project is an extension of the KY GenWeb Project.
The person responsible
for Union County is Janine
M. Bork. Please contact me if you have a desire to add
your data to the database. Please put Union County in
the subject line.
Union county boundary changes occurred February 11, 1887
(when Wallowa county
was formed), and in 1901 when a portion of the county
(called the Panhandle) was
transferred to Baker county.
Union county's neighbors are:

Tom Kassinger has sent a couple of pictures of Holdman,

One is of a century farm in the Holdman family.
I have moved my own information to the American Genealogy
and History Project. I will continue to be dedicated
to
placing free on-line information on that site.
