Harley Jones and Katie Wheeler's Harney County / Albert Bryce Hanner.
"Harley Jones and Katie Wheeler s Harney County shares the rich history of their family and their own experiences growing up in Eastern Oregon s rugged high desert. Their father, Hugh Jones, emigrated from Wales to Kansas in the 1880s, where he married Lettie Shoop in 1899. Together, they embarked on a journey westward, eventually settling in Oregon. Born in 1907, Katie was the middle of six children and traveled with her family across the country in a covered wagon before making a home in Harney County. Harley, the youngest, was born in 1917 on the family s homestead in Catlow Valley. Told in their own words through interviews, recordings, and journal entries spanning from 1972 to 2013, Harley Jones and Katie Wheeler s Harney County is a heartfelt memoir of resilience, adventure, and a deep connection to the land that shaped their lives."--Amazon.
