Oregon, as did his sister-in-law Mrs. Pocahontas Plamondon. The

Death Note: Woodard quotes the obituary in the [IT:Daily Oregonian:IT] (Portland)
of 9 June 1863, p.3, col.1, that he died in his 64th year, which would
make him born in 1798/9, at odds with the Censuses; and a cemetery
inventory says he was born 16 January 1801.
