Delia Davidson McCurdy's dream, as well as the store, portions of lone, including its five saloons, went up in smoke in January 1918. "So back to the ranch," and for the next 20 years they worked sheep, horses, cattle and 1600 acres of wheat. Delia often cooked for eight men during the years that "little" Harlan and his sister Maxine were growing up. Jack Sum ner farms that ranch land today. Last week Harlan and Delia came home to Morrow County to stay. They have lived at Dulzura, Ca., near their daugh ter and Maxine and son-inlaw, ter Maxine and son-in-law, years. A real insight into county history can be gained by visiting with Harlan and Delia. Harlan was a hard working young man on the Davidson Ranch at Eight Mile when Heppner washed away on June 14. 1903. He had ridden through Lonerock and over toward Spray looking for a horse when he met two riders who told him about the flood. He hurried back to the ranch and on to lone. He was in the saddle 75 miles that day. Next day he got a team and came in to help clean up Heppner. Harlan was born in nearby Gilliam County and attended Dry Fork Grade School. His early years were spent on the Lee Scriviner place which is now owned by Jim Farley. After he and Delia left the ranch in 1942 he did various interesting work. He served on the Rodeo Board for 15 years, was arena director, and also parade director. He managed the Heppner Elks Club for about eight years. He oper ated the elevator at Ruggs during the years their son Harlan Jr. was manager of the Morrow County Grain Grow ers. Delia was born in the southwestern corner of Mor row where her grandfather Gamaliel Davidson, a Civil War veteran, and his wife Izabella, homesteaded. he established the Davidson post office which functioned from 1893 to 1897. Their ranch joined the A.P, Lovgrens, whose many de cendants still reside in Mor row County. Gamaliel and Izabeela's son Louis married Ella Lovgren and then moved to lone so their children, including Delia, could attend the lone schools. Before the McCurdys bought their place at Dulzura, which they just sold, they gave Arizona a try-but Harlan knows there is no place that can compare with home. The last two summers they have rented the little log cabin which belongs to the Bill Weatherfords in the timbered Blake Resort. Now they are temp nporarily "camping" in a i house beside Mrs. Walter tinv Gilman where Elder St. turns into Aiken St. When the new Cleveland duplex is ready they move in on Church St. Their son Harlan Jr. is now manager of the Pomeroy, Wn. Grain Growers. Daughter Maxine, who brought them north, is remembered as a princess and queen of the Heppner Rodeo and a princess and queen of the Pendleton Round Up Her husband Leon ard Gilman heads the South western regional office of the U.S. Imigration and Natural ization Service.
