General Notes:
Nebraska Pioneer
Family Contribution from Becky Siple:
Edward & Mary were married 16 Dec 1875 in Nebraska. He was the son of John & Susanna Bullock Loney. They were in Nebraska until 1880, appear in California in 1900, and must have moved to Oregon shortly thereafter. The Steinbaughs appear to have moved from Nebraska to California about 1876, then to Oregon shortly after the 1900 census. The Loneys were pioneers, just not Oregon pioneers, having moved in their lifetimes from North Carolina, and Kentucky to Ohio, Indiana, Nebraska, & California, then Oregon.
