From Obituary (do not know what newspaper)

Mrs. Ruth Collver was born in Portage County, Ohio; October 29, 1827.  She lived in Ohio until she was eleven years old, and with her parents Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Rice moved to Iowa in 1839.  She was married to Alfred Bainbridge Collver at Bur-Oak Ridge, Iowa, December 25, 1844, and to this union a family of seven boys and four girls were born, all of which are living except two girls.  They lived togather (sic) until his death May 7, 1901.

They left Tipton, Cedar County, Iowa the first of April 1851, crossed the Plains as far as Salt Lake City, Utah, and stayed over winter with the Mormons.  Came to Oregon in the fall as Oregon City.  The next spring moved to Long Tom, Lane County, Oregon.  The next fall moved to the French settlement in Douglas county, Oregon.

They moved on Coos river in August 1857.  In the spring of 1884 they moved to Catching Slough that being her home until her death, September 18, 1903.

Her age was 75 years 10 months and 19 days.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After the birth of Ansel, they began to plan to move to Oregon. In the spring of 1851 they joined a wagon train and headed for Oregon.  However, when the the colder weather of autumn came, they were only as far as Utah, so they decided to spend the winter there (Adelia was born in January in Provo, Utah).  The family reached Oregon the following summer and Alfred Collver took a Donation Land Claim in Douglas County.  However the family moved several times before they found a home in Coos County which became their permanent home. (Our Colonial Lines, pp. 55-56)
