Nellie Edwards
Baker City, 1929-2016
She was proud that her
great grandfather EP Per-
kins (who was the wagon
master) along with his four
brothers, brought the fi rst
wagon train to Baker Val-
ley from Missouri.
On average the Perkins
Wagon train would travel
13 to 15 miles per day
for 118 days and success-
fully brought a total of
four wagon trains to Baker
Valley.
On the last trip they
brought their parents and
all settled in Baker Valley.
A picture of the fi ve broth-
ers is along the Leo Alder
Pathway.
Nellie is survived by her
daughter Pauline and her
husband Danny Evans of
Baker City, OR; son Ken
and his wife Ruth Edwards
of Lakeview, OR; brother
Don Perkins of Sumpter,
OR; grandkids Wade
and his wife Vicki Evans
of Pendleton, OR, Curt
Evans of Hermiston, OR,
Justin Edwards of Van-
couver, WA, Sarah and her
husband Shawn Layng of
Aberdeen WA; four great
grandkids Kaitelyn Evans
of Pilot Rock, OR, Charlie
Evans of Hermiston, OR,
Hayden and Hayzel Layng
of Aberdeen WA.
She was proceeded in
death by her husband Paul
Edwards and parents Ad-
rain and Myrtle Perkins.
