      Willard "Jack" Davis Archives:
      GOOD BYE INDIANA by Kate Sharp Jones, a story that is in the HISTORIES section of this website, http://www.forneyclarkgenealogy.com/Histories/Goodbye%20Indiana.html
      "On the 14th day of February, Permelia Bird became the wife of Norval Robbins. It was the coldest day they had seen in Oregon. One of the wedding guests, Benjamin Athey remarked, he thought the Robbins and the Birds were mating out of season, since most of the invited guests nearly froze to death on the way to the wedding."
