Topic: Laughlin/Rice/Poole/Willoughby/Richie familes
From: Diane Berry ecpl@oregonvos.net

I am looking for any information on the Laughlin, Rice, Poole, Willoughby and Richie families from Coyville and New Albany. I found Jane and JM Laughlin on 1870 census. I presume these are parents of my ggg grandfaher James Edward Laughlin's parents as his mother was supposed to have been Joseph and Jane (Poole) Laughlin. JE married a Dora Rice and then Nancy Willoughby in 1900 in New Albany. Nancy was the mother of Alta Mae Richie who marred JE's son Charles Marvin Laughlin. They were also supposed to have married in 1900 in New Albany.
Both CM Laughlin and Alta were born in New Albany we believe. Nancy's parents were Hopkins and Malinda Rose Willoughby. Her husband was Isaac Thomas Richie listed in the WilsonCo. list of civil war vet in 1883, Coyville. JE & Nancy, Alta & Charles, Hopkins and Malinda and the Meyers came to Oregon after 1900. Jane Pool or Dora Rice or both may have been Native American, although Jane is listed as white on the census. Any information on these families or their ancestors would be appreciated
