- Title: Lewis Linebarger record of family marriages
Source Text: This source is very old and was handwritten in ink by LEWIS LINEBARGER, father of MARY LINEBARGER. It was among the possessions of his daughter, VIRGINIA [LINEBARGER] GILMOUR, and sister of MARY LINEBARGER at the time of her death in 1914, and was given to her daughter [and my great Aunt] MAUD GILMOUR after she died. It indicates MARY LINEBARGER was married to LOVELL KNIGHTEN on 15 March 1852. This record was passed on to me by my great Aunt MAUD GILMOUR prior to the time of her death in 1968. Aunt MAUD obtained it from her mother, VIRGINIA LINEBARGER GILMOUR, daughter of LEWIS LINEBARGER and JANE HENDERSON.

- Title: Ellensburg Newspaper Obituary About Jan 30, 1909
Source Text: According to the obituary: "Mrs. MARY KNIGHTEN Passed Away at Home of her son, near Baird." The obituary goes on to say: " Mrs. MARY KNIGHTEN died near Baird Jan. 27, at the age of 76 years, four months and fourteen days. She was born in Illinois Sept. 13, 1833. When ten years of age with her parents, emigrated to Oregon in the year 1843. Crossing the plains with ox teams they met with many hardships on their tiresome journey, and when near their destination, while coming from the Dalles, Oregon on the Columbia River to Portland, one of the canoes, which was piloted by Indians, was overturned, running into a whirlpool, loosing almost everything it contained. Three of her brothers had a miraculous escape from being drowned, while one young man of the party was lost, and his body left buried in the cold waters of the Columbia. His father, his only parent, was rescued, but heart broken over the loss of his only son. Her parents settled in Washington county near Forest Grove, Oregon. In 1852, she was married to LOVELL KNIGHTEN. To this union eleven children were born, five of who are living, two dying in infancy and four, Mrs. ELLA WILKES, in 1888, Mrs. MINNIE WALKER in 1900, Mrs. ADA K. LONG in 1906 and L. D. KNIGHTEN in December 1908. Those who are living are I.T. of Wapato, Wash. and C.D. of Spokane, O.A. and Mrs. ANNA M. SWANK of Baird, Washington, and H.C. of Mabel, Oregon. Soon after her marriage she with her husband moved to Linn County, near Tangent, where she lived continually on a donation claim for over 46 years. In the year 1899, the family moved to Crawfordsville, Oregon, where they lived until July 1905. Her husband having died June 11, 1905, she came to Washington where she made her home with her son OLIVER, until the time of her death. She was a member of the M.E. church for many years and a woman of sterling character, and loved by all that knew her. Her remains were shipped to Oregon and were laid to rest in the Albany cemetery, by those of her husband, where two of her daughters are interned. We miss thee from our home, Mother,
We miss thee from thy place
A shadow o'er our life is cast
We miss the sunshine of thy face.
We miss thy kind and willing hand,
Thy fond and earnest care,
Our home is dark without thee,
We miss thee everywhere."
