Married in 1868, and living happily and successfully on the same farm for 47 years, is the proud record of Pernecia and Mason
Warnock, who celebrated their golden wedding Christmas day at their home in Springwter. both of them crossed the plains with
their parents in 1853, and have known each other nearly the whole of their lives.
Mrs. Warnock is a daughter of Samuel Hughes, who came from Salina County, Missouri, to settle in Clackamas County. Mason
Warnock is the son of William Warnock, who came from Indiana. They have four children, all living: Charles D. Warnock of
Evanston, Ill.; Samuel Warnock, of Oregon City; Fred Warnock, of Elk River, Idaho, and Mrs. D. C. Howell, of West Oregon City.
Many friends from all over the state were present for the celebration. Mr. and Mrs. Warnock were the recipients of many
valuable presents. The Oregon City delegation included R. D. Wilson, Charles Howell and William S. Warnock and family. |
