• Notes

  Skagit River Journal http://www.stumpranchonline.com/skagitjournal/SkagitCtyRiv/Library/Conrad/ConradNotes1951.html John Conrad's obituary notes: Colorful Lives 1951 Prepared for the August 1951 Skagit County Historical Association Pioneer Picnic including pioneers and their descendants who passed away from August 1950 to August 1951 LaConner, the Flats, Pleasant Ridge, Swinomish reservation The passing of Oliver D. Currier [died in 1950 at age 73, born in LaConner] represents the last of a family that was prominent before the turn of the century. His father and namesake, Oliver C., was a Civil War veteran who came West with his wife Augusta from Maine in 1876 and settled on the flats near Dodge Valley. They were devout Methodists and he was trustee at the local church. In 1900 he was killed when he fell and a loaded wagon ran over him. The funeral procession was the largest ever seen at that time and when they arrived at the Pleasant Ridge Methodist Church, the place was found to be already filled, so an outdoor service was necessary. Baptist and Methodist ministers participated and a large number of G.A.R. veterans were present. Their eldest daughter, Susan Lord, was an outstanding teacher around 1900 and I feel fortunate that she was my first in the old Jennings School. The following year she was Skagit County Superintendent of Schools. Shortly after becoming Mrs. Frederick Ornes, her promising career was cut short by death [sometime between 1906-08]. Oliver D. her brother, was a kind and respected neighbor. I can remember an example of his love of his fellow man when a life-long friend George Hannah became blind. Ollie took him on frequent drives around the county. Stopping once at our place, Hannah remarked that he enjoyed the sightseeing since Ollie was so good and considerate in describing the scenery, providing him as best he could with seeing eyes.
