Leabo Family History
Title
Leabo Family History
Description
A family history and genealogical notes on the Leabo Family of Oregon and California, handwritten by Alonzo Reas Leabo in 1936-1938, with some later additions. The Leabo Family is descended from Jacob Leabo (1795-1880), who made his first trip to Oregon in 1847. The Leabos settled in Forest Grove, Oregon in the 1860s, where several family members attended Pacific University. In 1919, many members of the Leabo Family began moving to Monrovia, California, where they lived for much of the 20th century.
Alonzo describes the Leabo Family's genealogy as well as many personal details of their lives, including an account of their travels from the East Coast to Oregon in the 1840s-1860s; encounters with Native Americans on the Oregon Trail; the founding of and attendance at Pacific University and Tualatin Academy in Forest Grove; work at Forest Grove businesses including the Hinman, Haines and Bailey stores, the Forest Grove Hotel and the First National Bank of Forest Grove; life and family properties in Portland, McMinnville and St. Joseph, Oregon and in Monrovia, California; and his family members' personalities, interests, health, deaths, and burials.
