LETTER FROM MR. CHARLES P. PEARSON December 21, 1995
(Lon's uncle and brother to Neva Ann Pearson)
Hello all,
I'll bet you gave up ever hearing from Me! I haven't talked with you
mom for ages. Hope you got out to Oregon this last summer as you said you
were going to.
Thanks for the computer printout of Pearson and Cutright families.
There is an error in Mom's birthdate, it should be 1903 instead of 1908,
thought you might want to know.
Now as to some of your questions, Winfield Scott become very well
known during the war of 1812, Where he became a major General and that is
who I believe Winfield Scott Pearson was named after. I heard something
about him riding for the Pony Express too but I doubt it because the Pony
Express only existed from April 3, 1860 through October 24, 1861, When
the East West Telegraph was Completed. They used young single men on the
Pony Express and Charles Ashley was born in 1859. I heard from my family
that Winfield Scott Pearson came out to California not too long after the
"Gold Rush", probably in the early or middle 1850's. He got a job on a
Stage Line running from Sacramento California to St. Helens Oregon. He
liked the northwest but went back to Kansas where he married a girl whom
he had known before, Sometime after Charles Ashley was born, he took his
family to the Northwest and "homesteded" near Scappoose in Columbia
County, Oregon.
I know Charles Ashley had brothers, but I don't knownames or how
many. When he was about 19 years old, he was working for a rancher who
had not paid him any wages for about 6 months; the Rancher kept promising
to pay his wages but never seemed to get around to it. One day Charles
Ashley drove a team of horses and wagon in to town and sold them,
Considering the money as his wages for the time he had worked for the
Rancher. He then headed for San Frincisco, changed his name to " Parker",
because he thought the Rancher had told the "law" about his theft and
sale of the horses and wagon.
He wasn't in San Francisco long, when he was "shanghaied" aboard a
whaling vessel bound for the South Pacific. They were gone for 6 months
and came back with a full cargo; they were paid almost nothing for their
Labor. He went back to Hawaii where the had probably stopped on the
Whaling voyage, and worked for 8 years as foreman over Chinese labor on a
pineapple plantation. I know that he traveled around a lot, was in
Chicago for a while, but I don't know what he did for employment. He met
and married Julia Ann Carter in Arkansas ( I don't Know if he was still
useing the name Parker or not) and Will, George and James, were born in
Arkansas. He came to California with family in 1899 or 1900. Worked at
logging in "redwoods" in Sierra Nevada Mountains above Fresno, California
then at harvesting fruit and vegetables throughout the central valley of
California.
In 1914 he found out from a brother in northwest, that the Rancher
had never told the "law" that his horses and eagon were stolen, because
he knew that 6 months pay was owed to Grandfather. I suppose he was a
little relieved, and I guess he missed the northwest, as he moved his
family to Ridgefield, Washington that Spring. My Dad was working on a
cattle ranch near the Mexican border that spring and he also decided to
go north. He rode his saddle horse from there to Ridgefield, Washington
that summer, working here and there along the way.
Dad was 9 years old when the earthquake and fire happened in San
Francisco. He came to look at the damage and said soldiers were there to
keep people from looting etc. but they let him pick up those Indian Head
Pennies that are melted together, that your mom has now.
We moved to the farm along the Cowlitz River, where Neva was born in
1928. We had a small dairy and sold cream to the local Creamery at
Toledo, Washington. the farm was 100 acres, where we raised about
everything that we ate. We raised wheat, oats, corn, and all kinds of
begetables. We had a large orchard of apples, pears, plums, cherries, and
pie cherries, We speared salmon from the river each fall, also netted
smelt, which were smoked along with salmon. We also had a few hogs and we
cured our own ham and bacon each year.
Gene and I both learned to swim in the Cowlitz River and we tried to
teach Neva to swim too, I don't know if she ever learned or not and we
did put her in a innertube and let her paddle for 20 or 30 feet, but not
in the main stream. Mom was afraid of water and never learned to swim and
would have had our hides if she knew that we had Neva in the river. We
sold that farm in 1940 and moved Centralia, Washington to another farm,
which I'm sure your mom remembers.
I hope this is understandable and answers most of your questions, if
not give me a call. Hope everyone in your family is "Hale and Hearty" and
at peace with the world! Take care of each other!
Your uncle and aunt Chuck and
Carol
