The T.lcCurdys are home to stay
BY
JUSTINE WEATIIERFOIU)
"My nineteen-year-old bride
expected to live on ice cream
and candy from that day
forth" said Harlan McCurdv.
proprietor of "a wonderful"
ice cream and candy empori
um at lone about 56 years ago.
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
