Their great-grandparents came over the covered wagon route as far as Coos Bay, Ore. (not the site of the present city), but turned back. However, a son, Dr. Andrew Overbeck, and wife, grandparents of our members, later returned and settled in Jacksonville, Ore. Dr. Overbeck was the first physician in Jacksonville and built the first hospital there. Fire destroyed all buildings, but, thanks to the Peter Britt collection, Miss Claire Hanley was able to have enlarge ments made from old photo graphs and gave them to the sisters, who are now assem bling old family daguerreo types to present to the Mu seum. Dr. Overbeck, his wife and three of their children are buried In the old ceme tery in Jacksonville. Although their mother, Amelia Over beck, was born in Jackson ville, she moved to Missouri for schooling, was married and remained there during her lifetime. Both our member sisters have had successful life ca reers: Emmabee Mundy chose the field of education, major ing in biological sciences in the University of Missouri. An opportunity to teach as Wei lesley was tempting, but an inherited interest in the Far West prevailed and she joined the faculty of Pasadena City college at the time of its be ginning, 1928, and remained to help it grow into the large and modern Institution it now Is. She was appointed chair man of the Department of Life Sciences in the college: and won the honor of being designated "Woman of the Year in Education." Madge Mundy Blackwood entered the entertainment world. She sang a solo part in the first rjresentation nf "The Time, The Place and The Girl" in Chicago. For a number of years she was solo ist with musical srourjs on the big Red Path Chautauqua and Lyceum circuits. This termi nated with her marriage to Mr. Blackwood, the general director of the Red Path Bu reau. Left a widow with two small girls, Mrs. Blackwood confined her singing career ro local concert engagements or to short concert tours, in order to maintain a home-life tor her daughters. When Miss Emmab re. tired in 1983, the sisters en tered White Sands, a retire ment residence in La Jolln Calif. But, after a trip to Jack sonville and upon investiga tion or ogue Valley Manor, they decided to move here in 1960, becoming two of our most enthusiastic member Manor members generously share interesting and talented guests with all of us. The Howard Mann's house'guest, Miss Phyllis Hohenshail, a cousin, gave us a concert on our auditorium Hammond or gan, preceding the regular movie this past week. Miss noncnsnaii received her B.A. degree in music at St. Franpls college in Jolictt, 111. During "iKn scnooi aays she played wnn ner lather's orchestra and since then has been play ing in hotels and nightclubs in the Middle West. Recently she completed a contract with a notei in Fend eton. Ore and stopped over for a brief visit In the Manor while en route to her home in Joliett. . We have a "poet laureate" ior me Manor.
