(http:// www.evergreenhospital.org/landing.cfm?id=577&fr=true) Chapter One: Booth’s Roots Dozens of books deal with the Oregon Trail era and the historic Champoeg meeting. Men of Champoeg documents the role played by Robert Moore, Gardner’s great-great-great-grandfather, as does History of Oregon, Vols. I and II. Also authoritative on Moore, Joseph Meek and Medorem Crawford are Willamette Landings and Outpost, John McLoughlin and the Far Northwest. Oregon Trail historians confirm the arrival of Gardner’s great-great-grandfather, James Marshall Moore; great-grandmother, Elizabeth Jane Moore, and great-grandfather, Ronald C. Crawford, in 1847. (Oregon Trail emigrants of 1847: Correspondence with Stephenie Flora, historian with http://www.oregonpioneers. com/ortrail.htm) The exploits of Ronald C. Crawford are documented in Living Pioneers of Washington. An unpublished interview with Laurence S. Booth, Gardner’s grandfather, was conducted on May 26, 1936, for the Washington Pioneer Project. It is in the Washington State Library Manuscript Collection, MS 31, Box 5, Tumwater, WA. Laurence S. Booth’s article Seattle the Glorious, appeared in American Mercury, January 1933. Skid Road, documents Laurence S. Booth’s derring-do in Seattle’s Great Fire in 1889. His membership in the Seattle Fire Department is documented in Seattle Fire Department, 1889. The P-I’s interviews with the workers in the cabinet shop where the fire began were published on June 21 and 22, 1889. Further details about the Booth and Gardner families were gleaned from Washington West of the Cascades, Volume III, and A Volume of Memoirs and Genealogy of Representative Citizens of the City of Seattle and County of King, Washington. Also see Sketches of Washington 1907, Washington State Library, Tumwater, and A History of the State of Washington, Vol. III. Information on William Gardner is from Tacoma – Its History and Its Builders, Vol. lll, rare book collection, Washington State Library, Tumwater. Also, “Death Takes Wm. Gardner, Pioneer Plumber,” TNT, Oct. 25, 1938. Information on the 193
