SEEKING any information pertaining to CHARLOTTE ANNE
CHURCH/BEAGLE.
She lived in Agate Beach in the winter of 1968, The
county is Lincoln and the state is Oregon.
Through measure 58 I obtained my original birth
certificate but so far have only hit walls with my
search. Charlotte's name in type on the original
certificate was listed as CHARLOTTE ANNE CHURCH, but
her signature was CHARLOTTE A. BEAGLE. This has
increased the difficulty also no father listed. I was
put into foster care imediatley following my birth
butI have reason to believe Charlotte had other
children (3) and wish to find them and or her.
Any information or assistance will be greatly
appreciated and I can supply a bit more details then
stated here.
Thank you,
Her daughter,
Dawn Wildfang

Elko County has county Birth & Death records from about 1887. Newspapers are also a good source and date to the county's beginning. Neither are complete but worth checking. If you'll send or post the specific name and date you are searching I'll see what I can find in my index. Good Luck. Judy
We would like to invite you to re-visit our website, The POORHOUSE STORY (a
clearinghouse for information about 19th century American poorhouses) at
http://www.poorhousestory.com
We just posted a portion of a 1904 federal government report which
summarizes the poor laws in every state. On the NEVADA page we have copied
the excerpt for just your state. It is interesting to see how the laws
varied from state to state. And understanding which state or county agency
had administrative responsiblity over poorhouses may help you locate local
poorhouse records more easily.
DIRECTIONS:
At the homepage (link above) click on POORHOUSES BY STATE, then on NEVADA
on the table of states. If you have been to the website recently you may
have to click REFRESH or RELOAD on the browser to see the new information.
You will find the link to this excerpt near the top of the page in a section
titled HISTORY and marked with a big yellow NEW arrow.
There are other pages on the site which may give you some interesting
perspective on poorhouses. They are off the homepage and include: the
HISTORY page and the LETTER TO GENEALOGISTS as well as FEATURED ARTICLES.
There are great tips for researching poorhouse records for yourself on the
RECORDS page; and you might want to subscribe to our (almost) monthly
newletter (which you can do in the lower right corner of the homepage).
The information on our site will only grow through the submissions of
generous readers. If you would like to e-mail me ... please do so off-list
because I cannot maintain subscriptions to as many lists as we post messages
on. (You can use an e-mail link off one of our web pages.)
We hope you enjoy the site!
Thanks,
