William Daniels, my 2nd great-grandfather, was born January 2, 1840, in Marion County, Missouri. He followed the Oregon Trail westward with his parents, Austin & Mary Daniels, in 1851. They were counted among the pioneers of Soap Creek, Benton County, Oregon.
William died on May 24, 1924. His death certificate can be found here. A copy of his obituary has yet to be found. If anyone has a copy of one, please comment below or contact me.
William is buried in the Masonic Memorial Park in Tumwater, Thurston County, Washington. He is listed in their online index, which states he was buried in a casket on May 27, 1924, in Row 1, Grave 4, Lot 1. "Block 17 Page 33" is also indicated. (His wife, Eliza, had been buried in Row 1, Grave 6S, Lot 1, on February 15, 1886).
