y Co. Missouri to the Oregon Territory in the fall of 1847. Levi claimed a donation land grant in Linn Co. Oregon in 1852, and on 4 March 1854, in Linn Co., he married Nancy --. John Fields also claimed a donation land grant in Linn Co. in 1853 o
r 1854.
It is not known why Christopher Fields, when he was about five years old, came to live with Felix and Margaret Iman, perhaps his parents had died. He was close to the Iman family all his life, and is buried in the Iman Cemetery. Christopher marrie
