Carolynn:

My great-grandparents were Caroline and Charles Johnson. Charles worked for the railroad and was killed in a car accident going up the hill to the Flats in about 1918. He left his widow and 6 kids. They had an apple orchard on Pogue Flats. My grandma was the oldest child, Bernice Johnson, born in 1904?. There was also Ruth, Una, Fern, Elmer, and Charles, Jr. Caroline's sister was my great great aunt, Emilie Danielson, married to Louis Danielson. They had two sons, Harold and LeRoy. As I said, Ruth stayed in Omak all her life, and her husband Willis had Hahn Sign Company. They built a home at 329 South Douglas in Omak and Ruth lived there for 60 years. I used to visit her there when I was little. She went to Trinity Lutheran Church most of her life and was a remedial reading teacher's aid after her three girls were grown. I dearly loved her. Would be cool if your mom knew her or her daughters. I remember Rosie riding her horse in the Stampede Parade.

I wonder if Johnson Creek was named after your family. I bet it was. Omak has been having its 100 yr anniversary and showing lots of photos. Been really interesting.

Is Johnson Creek up on the Flats? I never heard there was a creek named after my family, but could be, I guess. I love geneology, but I can't spell it, lol! I'd love to see all the pictures. I don't have many from that branch of my family. I think they were too poor to afford a photograph. I think I have one picture of the 6 kids. Where in Omak are they showing the photos? I wonder if all the birth and death records are still intact from the last 100 years. I would love to get some of them.

You know, I think the farmhouse was on Duck Lake Road. I will have to ask my mom. My in-laws must be very close to you Teresa. They are on 6 Nichols Road. The house burned down about 20? years ago, when mil was Eldora Bjorklund, then they rebuilt it. She was widowed and married Julius Baker, who used to drive a school bus in Omak, but is now 84. He has a brother and a son, but I don't know them.
