Death of Mrs. Anna Lee, of
Canby.
Mrs. Anna Lee, who died at Canby,
March 28th, aged 02 years and four
months, was one of the notable early
pioneers of Clackamas county. She and
her late husband, Philander Lee, were
virtually the founders of Canby, having
located a donation land claim on Canby
Prairie in 1848, which is now owned by
a son, lieman Lee. ine deceased was
born In Seneca county, New York, in
1307, her maiden name being Anna
Green. In 1827 she was married to Phi
lander Lee, and continued to live in
New York until 1816, when the family
moved to Iowa. In the autumn of the
same year, with a few others, Mrs, Lee
and family started for Oregon.
The account of that toilsome journey,
written by Mrs. Lee herself, holds the
reader spell-bound. The fording of
deep rivers, the short rations, the hos
tile Indians, death and burial on the
plains, form a large part of the narrative.
After the party to which Mrs. Lee be
longed, had passed the summit of the
Blue mountains, a note was brought
by an Indian from Dr. Marcus Whit
man, telling them to send a team to the
mission for flour. Later, Dr. and Mrs.
Whitman visited the lonely little band
of hn migrants, and informed them that
the Indians were growing unfriendly.
Four weeks later came the terrible
Whitman massacree. After many dif
ficulties the party succeeded in descend
ing the Columbia river to the mouth of
the Willamette. The party landed at
Linnton In 1847, and in 1843 moved to
Sauviee Island. In the same year the
Lee family moved to Baker's Prairie,
now Canby Prairie.
Mrs. Lee was the mother of five sons
and three daughters. Two of the sons
and one daughter are still living. Her
other descendants are: Sixteen grand
children, 17 great" grandchildren and
two great, great, grandchildren. Ev
eryone acquainted with Mrs. Lee,
knew her to possess in a marked jle
gree, all those sterling qualities that so
strongly characterized Oregon's noble
pioneers.
