Speaking of which,I only dipped into the Historic Oregon Newspapers which are all free and searchable online. If you want to do any searching re Pauline & the Fithian family here is the link to the Search Term Input Page: http://oregonnews.uoregon.edu/<br />AND if you come across any evidence of how Conan Doyle came to know/stay with William in 1915 I should love to know.Altamonthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07487675562905937401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1766557913348045247.post-62104548742414485732013-06-09T13:18:06.620-07:002013-06-09T13:18:06.620-07:00Whoops you already had the article.

If you are looking to know more about them, my Aunt has a very complete history of the family, including how William and Pauline met while he was on a medical conference in California. It's interesting you should include a picture of Pauline in her wedding dress, as it is still in the family and has been worn I think six times now. Pauline was a favourite of my fathers and my sister carries her name. Caroline Watsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10797755197487449868noreply@blogger.com
