I've "rescued" an old photograph of Quinten WASHBURN which was taken at the
Browning Studio in Portland, OR. The photograph was taken in the early
1900's with Quinten appearing to be about 4 years old at the time it was
taken. Based on limited research I was able to locate the following
information regarding Quinten and his family:
Quinton or Quintin or Quinten H. WASHBURN was b. 20 Feb 1903 in Beaver
Falls, OR to parents Perry W. WASHBURN (1859-1932) and Nancy S. HUDSON
(1867-1944). Quinton was one of 5 children born to this couple including,
Preston P.; Columbus Ferdinand "Ferd" or "Fred"; Minnie Aurora; Emory
or
Emery Edgar; and Quinton H. WASHBURN, all born between 1886 and 1903.
Quinton married Osco or Osee or Osci Helen CHAPMAN (b. 1908) and together
they had 2 children including a son, Dale K. WASHBURN (1936-1979). Quinton
died 4 Feb 1981 in Longview, WA and is buried in the Woodbine Cemetery in
Rainier, OR.
