The following lists are being updated constantly.  If you have additions or corrections please contact me Stephenie Flora.  If you have pictures of your ancestor that you are willing to share I would love to add them to the Photo Gallery.
In addition to the following list, Francis Milne did quite a bit of research on the 1847 trains many years ago.  Her notes have been put online by Tuck Forsythe at Francis Milne Notebooks

Captains of 1847

Note: The wagon trains of 1847 were in constant transition.  Wagons left one train and joined another.  Trains joined together, split, and then joined a different train. Each time there was a split another Capt. took over the wagons that split off.  Information will be updated as it is found but this is the information as I show it at this time.  

1) Capt. John William Bewley: started out. Left Independence, MO on May 7, 1847.  It joined later with the Cornlius Smith train that had left from St. Joseph, MO per an account by John Cullen.  Capt. Bewley was elected the permanent Captain after a shakedown period of several days. Included in the party were the Isaac Bewley family, the Campbells, Crisps, Danforths, Greens, Prettymans, Youngs, and the Victor Wallace family. This train appears to have joined up at some point with the rear company of the Oskaloosa split led by Capt. Kees.    There appears to have been a split because a portion of this train joined up with the Rev. Jolly train at Ft. Bridger. Five months and three days after leaving Independence they had their first view of the Columbia. On Oct 10, 1847 they camped at the mouth of the Umatilla and the next morning the party began to separate and follow different paths. Some of the members of the train chose to go to the Whitman Mission where they became embroiled in the Whitman Massacre

2) Capt. Jordan Sawyer: left from St. Joseph, MO; party consisted of 27 wagons including James Moore; Larkins; Fudge; Marck Sawyer; Mr. Smith; Elijah Bird; Robert Bird; William Blair; William Larkin; Sol Allen and Robert Kinney, Rev. Samuel Allen, John Bird and others, making 35 able-bodied men accompanied by their wives and children. They had numerous encounters with Indian along the way and one incident where the wagon of Mrs. Fudge stampeded. They crossed the Cascade mountains over the Barlow road and arrived at Foster's Oct 1, 1847.  At some point this train may have linked with that of Capt. William Vaughn as the Bird family is mentioned by Callaway Hodges as a member of his train Captained by Vaughn.

3) Capt. David D. Davis and Capt. Kees: party was called Oskalaoosa Company.  It started out as one company under Davis and later split with Kees taking over some of the wagons.  It and included Saunders, Canfields, Sawyers, Bakers. At one point it is believed that the Kees company joined up with the party led by Capt. Bewley listed above.  

4) Capt. Joel Palmer: Joel Palmer went to Oregon first in 1845 on his own with a company from Independence. He kept a journal of his travels then and during his return to the East in 1846, at which time he had it published. Few of the copies ordered were completed by the time he was ready to set out for Oregon again in 1847, but it later became widely used. Palmer recruited a large number of people to join his company in 1847. It is believed he had 85 wagons and then was later joined by the Chicago Company led by Thomas Cox that added an additional 14 wagons.  The train included the Ralph C. Geer family, the John W. Grim family, the Graham and Collard families and Christopher Taylor. Robert Crouch Kinney and his brother Samuel also stated in later years that they came with the Palmer Company, although Robert Kinney's name is also listed among those in the train of Capt. Jordan Sawyer.

5) Capt. John E. Ross: led a party of 40 wagons to Oregon in 1847, at the age of 29. John E. Ross Interview transcribed by Ben Truwe

6) Capt. Lot Whitcomb: led a party of 115 wagons from St. Joseph, MO; at least some of the party, including Albert Briggs, arrived at Portland on 14 Oct 1847

7) Capt. Nathaniel Bowman (seen in some diaries as Bomen): A company of 53 wagons commanded by Capt. Bowman started out of St. Joseph, MO.  The train apparently split because they were down to 16 wagons when they were stopped a few miles west of the Dalles August 28th  according to T'Vault, Barlow, and Foster on their way to the relief of the superintendent at the Dalles and a party of emigrants there, who had been attacked by Indians August 23rd. Some of the men in the party did return. A Capt. Bowman led a party over the Barlow Road 

8) Capt. Albert Davidson: started with 48 wagons from St. Joseph, MO; Albert had first journeyed to Oregon in 1845 with his brother James Jr. He returned East in 1846 and persuaded his father and others in Iowa, Illinois and Missouri to go in 1847 via the Southern Route. His brother, Thomas L. Davidson, kept a journal of the trip, later turning it into a manuscript narrative called "The Southern Route". Among others journeying in the Davidson Company was the family of Jesse D. Walling from Illinois.

9) Capt. Rev. William B. Jolly: joined with the Bewley train at Fort Bridger.

10) Capt. John Bonser: left MO May 10 with a train of 100 wagons; spent July 4 at Independence Rock; arrived at the Dalles Oct 5, 1847.  When the train split because of its large size there were 17 wagons that stayed with Capt. Bonser. The Young family joined this train at Ft. Bridger after having been left behind by the Jolly/Bewley trains.

11) Capt. Buell: This party included the Buells, Batemans, Careys, Conners, Franklins, and Putmans.

12) Capt. William Vaughn Wagon Train

13) This is believed to be wagon train #16;  party of 23 wagons left Pittsfield, Pike Co, IL Apr 5, 1847; crossed the Missouri about the first of May, on the Platte River in Nebraska on the 29th of May, Ft. Laramie about 4th of June and reached Oregon City about the 10th of September

14) Capt. Scott; departed IL Feb 1847 and arrived Sept. 20, 1847

15) Capt. White; departed Cedar Rapids April 15, 1847; train consisted of approximately 42 wagons; believe this train joined the #10 Bonser train listed above at some point

16: Collard-Hubbard train; left Independence and arrived via Barlow Road

17: Capt. Frederick: cut off at Ft. Hall and took southern route into Oregon

18.  Capt. Wylie Chapman was leading some of this party; appears he may have originally been in the Oskaloosa Train and took over some of the wagons that didn't want to go the Southern Route including the Saunders, Canfield and Sawyer families.  Some references state that he had 50 wagons and that when the train split Rev. William Jolly took over some of the wagons.

19. Capt. James Curl; 41 wagons

20. Capt. Claypool, 23 wagons

21. Capt. Carter, 19 wagons

22. Capt. Patton, 35 wagons

23, Capt. William Wiggins, led train into CA

24. Capt. McGown (also seen as Magone and Magoon); 90 wagons that split into parties led by Capt. John McKinney, 27 wagons, Capt. Elijah Patterson, 16 wagons and McGown who had the remaining 44 wagons.

25. Capt. Thomas Hockett

*26: Capt. Thomas Cox; left Wilimington, IL March 15 with 13 wagons, was joined at St. Joseph, MO by other family members and at one point traveled through the Nemeha country with the Joel Palmer train.

MENES, Francois Capt. ( -1867): brought Archbishop Blancet from Europe where he had gone to get funds to continue his work in America; returned again in 1849 with a cargo owned by V. Marzion and Company of Havre de Grave, who planned to establish a French colony in Oregon; his vessel, L'Etoile du Matin (Morning Star) was caught on the bar of the Columbia River and so badly damaged that she was towed to Portland where she was unloaded and her hull burned.  Capt. Menes proceeded to Oregon City where he opened a French store for the vessel's owners.  In 1850 Dr. John McLoughlin became a partner in this store.  Capt. Menes became indebted to Dr. McLoughlin because when Dr. McLoughlin died in 1857 his estate showed that real estate in the amount of $2500 and promisory notes in the amount of $5698.20 was due the estate from F. Menes.  Capt. Francois Menes received naturalization papers in Marion Co in 1862; he died in Marion county in 1867.

ROSE, Hester Ann (1786-1876): m1. DAWSON, Mr. m2. LANDPHEAR, Jonas

The Late Mrs. Landphear--The following extract from Mrs. Landphear's funeral sermon has been kindly furnished us for publication, and will doubtless prove of interest to those who knew her. Mrs. Hester Ann Landphear was born at a place called Warm Springs, Bath county, Virginia, August 24th, 1786, and was therefore at the time of her death nearly ninety years old. She was a girl of twelve summers when Washington died, and no doubt remembered that event. She was a married woman long before the telegraph was discovered, or railroads were operated, and so with all the great inventions of the last fifty years, she was a married woman before they were known. When Grandmother Landphear was born New York was a city of ten or twelve thousand inhabitants, not as large as the city of Portland is to-day. She enjoyed life in her humble way, almost to her dying day always cheerful never gloomy nor desponding. For the past ten years at least, constantly realizing that her end was near. Perfectly resigned to the will of her Heavenly Father, she was ever ready for the summons to call her hence. At Warm Springs, Virginia, Miss Hester Ann Rose was married to Mr. Dawson[i] and shortly after removed to Bartholomew county, in the State Indiana, where she lived for many years. She had six children by this husband: Cyrus, John, James, Franklin, Jesse and Nancy. This last was the only one of the six who accompanied her mother to this country. She was the wife of Mr. Luke Taylor, and died in this county in the year 1862, and her remains are deposited in the grave-yard on Clatsop Plains. All the boys are dead also. Jesse the fifth son was a volunteer in the Union Army and was killed in battle. Several of her children married, and to them were born eleven grandchildren. After the death of Mr. Dawson in Indiana, she removed to the State of Illinois, and made her home at Batavia, Kane county. Here Mrs. Dawson married Mr. Jonas Landphear.[ii] We were in the habit of pronouncing her name Lamphear. But the proper way was Landphear. This was the way Mr. Landphear always wrote it. There were no children by this marriage. In the year of 1847 they decided, with quite a number of others to seek a new home on the Pacific slope, and on the 12th day of April of that year they commenced their long and tedious journey across the continent, and at the end of the seventh month they arrived at The Dalles of the Columbia river. There were 300 in all in the party. At The Dalles, Mr. Landphear and Mr. Taylor constructed a boat in order to descend the Columbia, and in the course of three weeks they were ready to start. All went well until they came to the Cascades where the boat struck a rock and all came near losing their lives, but by good management the boat was extricated from her perilous position, and in due time these two families landed safely at the Hudson Bay's Trading Post at Vancouver, Washington Territory, then called Oregon. Determined to see the Pacific ocean, and if possible to find a home near the surging breakers, they took passage in a small craft called the Launch, owned by Jack Strong and Robert Alexander. This craft still lies on the mud flats in the vicinity of Mr. Ferrell's saw mill. In the course of a week they landed near Tanzy Point, and there made their home within a few miles of the ocean. They lived there for two years, and then moved to town, and took up their abode in a small log cabin at the rear of the present house, which she so lately occupied. This house was then in the woods, and it was considered no very easy task to get from the beach, the only, public highway, to this humble dwelling. In about the year 1861 the present house was erected by Mr. Luke Taylor, and the old log cabin was torn down. What a change has time made! A dense forest and jungle, as Grandmother saw it in 1847, is now a well built up town with the forest , a mile in the distance, and rapidly receding. Here she passed away on Sunday last, June 4th, after residing for twenty-seven years on the same lot on which she first settled, beloved by all who knew her, for her kind disposition and many social virtues. She was brought up in religions ways, by parents who were noted for their religious principles. Her father, she has told me, was such an expert in sacred learning, that he got the best of nearly all who ventured to argue with him on religious subjects. She joined the Methodist church in Indiana, but after she came to this country she did not identify herself with any religions body � some times attending one and then the other of the protestant bodies here established. She died as a christian ought, with an unwavering faith in Christ, and fully resigned to the will of her Heavenly Father. Her Prayer-book was presented to her many years ago by the good Bishop Scott, and she prized it much, not only on account of the donor, whom she ever spoke of with love and affection, but also on account of its blessed teachings. Grandmother Landphear was particularly fond of music, hence her great desire for persons to sing with her in her last sickness. Mr. Wadhams, of Portland, gave her great pleasure by singing for her one evening for about an hour, "Jesus Savior of my soul" and "Nearer my God to thee" she seemed to enjoy most. Frequently exclaiming in her feeble way during the singing, "Blessed Jesus, how sweet, how precious." She seemed to have a premonition that she would not recover, that this sickness was her last. The reason she assigned for this was, that many years ago when in the State of Illinois, she had a remarkable dream, and this dream seemed to come back to her with all its former vividness and force. I am not able to relate the dream as she told it to me. The substance of it was, that she was taken to heaven, and that there she heard the most enrapturing music, both instrumental and vocal, and there she beheld our blessed Saviour, in ineffable glory, and her raptures were increased by meeting and embracing a dear sister of hers who had died some time previously; and as she related this dream and talked of her dear sister and the blessed Jesus the tears rolled down her cheeks, adding, at the same time, this dream made such an effect upon her that she had never got over it. It is the lot of few to have as many sincere and self-denying friends as Grandmother Landphear had, and this she was conscious of and ever grateful for. Among the male portion of the community, she seemed to be the particular child and charge of the older bar and river pilots and their families and some of the first settlers. Many it is true, were very kind to her, but those were her particular friends. [The Daily Astorian. (Astoria, Or.), 12 June 1876, front page. Chronicling America: Historic American Newspapers.

     "Died--Daily Guard, August 22--Yesterday evening at 9 o'clock, William Smith, amother of the noble pioneers of Oregon, died at his home on Eleventh street in this city, aged 73 years, 5 months and 10 days. He had been in feeble health for several years.
    He was born in Redding, England, March 11, 1826. Coming to the United States with his parents, the family settled for a year at Rochester, New York, thence proceeded to Cleveland, Ohio, and three years afterwards to La Porte, Indiana, where the subject of this sketch grew to manhood. He started across the plains to Oregon April 9, 1847, and on the 23rd of October of that year arrived in Portland. He next located in Yamhill county, and after paying a visit to California in June, 1849, took up the claim on which he resided for so many years, and upon which is now located the village of Fairmount, situated a half mile east of Eugene. He married Nancy A. Lucker, whom he leaves, and four sons and daughters of mature age.
    Mr. Smith was a most estimable citizen and was respected by the people generally. The only public office he ever held here was director of school district No. 4, the affairs of which he conducted in a thorough business like manner. For years he was a delegate to the republican county and state conventions.
    A good man has gone and the people mourn his loss.
    The funeral will take place from his late residence on Eleventh street Wednesday afternoon at 2 o'clock to the Masonic cemetery." [The Eugene City guard, Aug. 26, 1899 pg. 1; contributed by Robyn Greenlund]

"WOODS, GEORGE L.--Caleb Woods, the father of Governor Woods, is a native of Madison County, Kentucky, and was born in 1806. He came to Oregon in 1847, bringing his family. Resides mainly in Yamhill County. His wife was a Miss McBride, a native of Tennessee.  Mrs. Woods died in 1871, and two of their four sons are also dead. Of the survivors, George L. Woods has attained distinction, becoming Governor of Oregon and earning celebrity in law and politics.  He was born in Boone County, Missouri, in 1831 or 1832, and after accompanying his parents to this State lived on his father's donation claim at North Yamhill. He was educated in the schools of Doctor Hudson and L. L. Rowland, both excellent teachers, and studied law by himself. He was quickly admitted to the bar, and showing great aptitude for his profession, he speedily attained a leading place among the professional men of the State. Being a ready and fluent talker and cogent debater, he was enabled to exert much influence upon political affairs, and took an important part in the discussion of public questions. For a time he practiced at Walla Walla and The Dalles, and was elected Governor of Oregon, and served four years. Upon the conclusion of his term of office he was appointed by President Grant Governor of Utah Territory, and held this position also for four years. he is now (1885) practicing law in San Francisco. Governor Woods is a forcible speaker, whose qualities as an ex tempore debater have been his principal distinction." [History of the Willamette Valley by Herbert Lang p.691-2]

"Woods, Hon. George L., deceased, ex-Governor of Oregon and of Utah, was born in Boone County, Missouri, July 30, 1832 and came to Oregon in 1844 (sic-1847).  He mined in California a short time, then returned to Oregon, studied law and was admitted to the bar in 1858.  He was one of the founders of the party in Yamhill County in 1856, and one of the foremost defenders of the Union in those trying times, and one of the most forceful and eloquent orators on the Pacific coast, his boice being heard in every campaign for thirty years.  In 1858 he was the Republican candidate for Prosecuting Attorney in the Portland district, and in 1863 was appointed Judge of Wasco County.  In 1864 he was elected Presidential Eledtor, and in65 was appointed to the Supreme County bench of Idaho.  In 1866 he was elected Governor of Oregon, and in 1871 was appointed Governor of Utah.  From 875 to 1885 he practiced law in California and Nevada, and from 1885 to January 14, 1896, the time of his death, in Portland."
