PARRETT MOUNTAIN
The mountain grangers attending grange in Sherwood last Saturday were: Mrs. Peter Heater, Mr. and Mrs. Frank Davis, Mr. Normanson, Miss Normanson and ye writer. The ceremonies and entertainment were appreciated by a goodly number of grangers from different localities and towns. The forenoon session was followed by a splendid chicken dinner partaken of by about 100 people. In the afteroon the grange carried out a beautiful ceremony in memory of our departed brother and neighbor, W. J. Weston. A brother granger from Oswego carried out the installation ceremonies from memory, thus starting the grange on its way for another year.

Family Contribution:  The Westons are a pioneer family.  My great grandfather was William Jasper Weston who came by wagon train from Arkansas across the Oregon Trail in about 1852 with his older half-brothers and other family.  William Jasper was only 6 or 7 years old when the family came west.  Dave Weston/Champoeg Park has a Weston family cemetery where Dave Weston and family are buried.  This is part of my family as well.  My grandfather, Andrew Weston, was William Jasper's son.  My father, Marvin Weston, is buried in the Crescent Grove Cemetery in Tigard, Oregon.  Cecil Weston was my great aunt.
