CHARITY J. LUPER. Both as daughter and
wife, Mrs. Charity J. Luper, a worthy member of
the society of Tangent, Linn county. Ore., has
experienced the trials of pioneer life, having
crossed the plains in 1852 with her parents, and
a few years later married John Luper, another of
the sturdy and reliable citizens of the new territory.
Mrs. Luper was in maidenhood Charity
J. Fanning, born in Morgan county. Ill., November
30, 1840, her parents being Levi and Nancy
(James) Fanning. The birth of her father occurred
in Virginia, February 8, 1810, and that
of her mother in Kentucky, November 18, 1806,
their marriage following in Illinois, whither they
had removed. In Morgan county they made their
home until the spring of 1852, April 1 of that
year finding them upon the plains with two
wagons and eight yoke of oxen to each, bound
for the broad lands of Oregon. While on the
journey the mother died on Snake river, August
2, 1852, leaving one son and two daughters. The
family continued their way into the west, where
the father took up a donation claim of three hundred
and twenty acres located three miles southeast
of Tangent, remaining there for many years.
A few years previous to his death, which took
place June 3, 1888, he removed to a farm three quarters
of a mile south of Albany and engaged
in farming. In August, 1853, he had married
Jane Gilliland, who is also now deceased.
Of her father's family Mrs. Luper was next
to the youngest in age, and the principal part
of her life has been passed among the scenes
of Oregon. She was married April 23, 1857,
near Tangent, to John Luper, who was born
in Crawford county. Pa., November 10, 1824.
He crossed the plains in 1853 and took up a donation
claim one mile northeast of Tangent,
where he engaged in farming for nearly forty
years, after which he removed to Tangent and
(lied there March 29, 1902. His widow, now a
resident of Tangent, has a life lease on the farm
of two hundred and twenty acres, and also owns
fourty-one lots in this city. Of the children born
to them. Commodore P, is deceased ; Ella Flor-
ence is the wife of John McFarland, located
near Albany ; and Lola Charity is the wife of J. E.
Ownbey, located two and a half miles southeast
of Tangent. Another member of the family is
Loren B. Luper, an adopted son, who now lives
on the old homestead. Mr. Luper was a stanch
supporter of the Prohibition principles in the
west, and fraternally was a member of the
Grange. He was a liberal supporter, member
and class leader of the Methodist Episcopal
Church, of which Mrs. Luper and her family
are members.Children:
