The Millhollens first settled in Benton County in the vicinity of Corvallis, later some of them settled in Linn County near Albany. More of the Millhollen and some of the Forgeys moved to Oregon later. James and Emaline (Millhollen) Forgey moved from Oregon to Washington, near Tacoma. Several Millhollens and Forgeys now live in Oregon and some Forgeys are now living in Washington.
Several members of the Gray family, including two by the name of James Gray, settled in the North Santiam and Fox Valley region, and along the foothills east of Halsey in Oregon. This Gray family is not identified [with our line].
James Gray, father of Cecelia Isabel (Gray) Millhollen [sic], had his left nostril shot off while serving in the army. In a letter a family member wrote, "We think he might have gone west with Millhollens between 1835 and 1840." Ft. Wayne, Indiana was written in Jackson's Bible beside his name.
The following family unidentified, is given because it is believed Edward Mulholland may be a relative of David A. Millhollen. Some of the first names of this family are also found in the Millhollen family listings. It shows the birthplace in Ireland. [This information was submitted by a member of the Genealogy Forum in Portland, Oregon.]

Mary and Polly Gray are in our family. It appears likely the above-named people are members of their family. (The Gray family). James and other Grays were early Oregon settlers.
John Milholan m. Peggy Brown 3 Apr. 1809 by John Huggins, Esq. (See par. 3, first page of Millhollen line.)
[Note: It may not be universally known, but our present-day U.S.A. interstate highway system was not built until the administration of President Eisenhower in the mid-1950s, so this trip taken by the Bunce family to Oregon was driven over mostly unpaved roads in an old Model A Ford automobile!]
In September 1923 Mrs. George K. Bunce and some of her children visited with Wm. Henry Millhollen, son of David Askins Ebenezer Millhollen, his wife and son, Lloyd in Corvallis, Oregon. He said about 100 members of the Millhollen family were living in Oregon at that time and that they had yearly reunions. He told them the story about the wagon-train trip of his father, David, and Uncle William from Illinois to Oregon.
Up to 1819 England, Russia, Spain and the United States all claimed the Oregon Region. In time the other three nations gave up their claim to it.
People in eastern states were urged to move to the Oregon Region so the U.S. could claim it. By 1842 a sizeable number of people made the trip; the following year hundreds made the trip.
By 1846 the title to Oregon had been settled. In 1849 after an Indian massacre in the Willamette Valley troops arrived there. By the same year government military posts had been established along the Oregon Trail which provided some protection for wagon trains. Council Bluffs, Iowa, Independence, St. Joe, Weston and Westport Missouri—Independence and Westport later became part of Kansas City—were concentrations and outfitting posts from which the wagon trains started on the trip to Oregon and other points west, mostly California and New Mexico. It was necessary for them to start in the spring after there was grass for their livestock.
Their covered wagons, 6 or 8 wagons to a company, loaded with supplies, were drawn mostly by 4-oxen teams, some had horses and mules. Their cattle were driven along with the wagons. The total cost per man for the trip was about sixty or seventy dollars.
The Millhollens asked their sister and brother-in-law, Celia and Elisha Jackson, to go with them but Elisha chose not to go. (See Jackson line for further explanation.)
William Henry Millhollen said his father, David Askins Ebenezer Millhollen, his Uncle, William Millhollen, Charles Maley and John Hancock, all single, along with Dr. Hurlburt, Doctor for the wagon train, and his wife, started from Oquawka, Illinois in the spring of 1852 and arrived in the Willamette Valley in Oregon August 27, 1852. The four single men left the wagon train about 200 miles east of The Dalles, Oregon and walked the remainder of the trip. Many of the wagons crossed the Columbia River at The Dalles to the Washington side, then traveled about seventy miles to Vancouver, Washington, the main supply point for people going to the Willamette Valley. Traveling about 11 or 12 miles a day, it took them several months to make the trip of 2,000 miles. The wagon trains experienced many hardships, including damaged wagons, trouble with livestock, lack of food and water, attacks by Indians, sickness and death; some having less trouble than others.

Oliver Bell Bunce, b. in New York City, N. Y., author and publisher. [More information on this man was contained in an email dated Aug. 13, 2007, from Bouwe Postmus, a Dutch professor:
I am writing to you from the Netherlands, where I am presently preparing an article about the author/playwright/publisher/literary impresario Oliver Bell Bunce (1828-1890). I am a professor of English in the University of Amsterdam.
I have found out that Oliver Bunce’s father was George Washington Bunce, who was baptized on 16 January 1800 in the Episcopal Church on Broadway and Seventy-First street New York and must have died before 1840. On 15 March 1826, he married Eliza Maria Bell (c. 1802—23-02-1895). The service was conducted by the Rev. Dr. James Milnor, rector of St. George’s Church. George Washington Bunce was a son of Nathaniel Bunce (1780-1849) and Cynthia Fish.
Nathaniel Bunce had a vault built in the New York City Marble Cemetery. Other relatives buried in the same vault were his wife, Cynthia Fish and his daughter-in-law Eliza Maria Bell.
Francis Marvin Bunce, b. Hartford, Conn., 25 Dec. 1836, d. 19 Oct. 1901, Hartford, Conn., Rear Admiral, American Navy.
William Kenneth Bunce, b. 31 Aug. 1907, Gallipolic, Ohio. He was a teacher, editor, dean of college, foreign service officer. Home, Alexandria, Virginia.
Stanley Bunce Chalmers, b. 21 Aug. 1917, Bayonne, New Jersey, son of Arthur Chalmers and Elizabeth (Sticht) Bunce Chalmers, m. Lillie Adele Jackson 2 Oct. 1943. He was an educator, chemist, author. Home, Taconic Lake Rd., Grafton, New York.
Lilly Pons, noted coloratura soprano with Metropolitan Opera Co. for many years. Notice of her recent death in Texas and burial in France reminded us of the reported origin of the Bunce name, listed in 1066 in France which was Pons. (See Origin of Names.)
Two or three years ago a New York genealogist said he thought the Bunces in this country descended from Thomas Bunce who arrived in America in 1636. Recently a New England genealogist wrote us that all Bunces from New England States descended from Thomas Bunce.
James H. Bunce, former mayor, Louisville, Ky. ran a line of packet steamers on the OH and Miss. Rivers. At the end of the Civil War, with broken health and finances, moved to the mts. near Lyons, Colo. Because of his helpfulness the school still bore his name (1935). [Source: p. 96, Enos Mills of the Rockies by Hildegarde Hawthorne & Esther Burnell Mills, published by Houghton Mifflin Company, Boston. 1935.] [Correction: A correction to this entry was in an email from Kathryn Mereness, dated Jan. 2, 2008, as follows:
I would like to make a correction to your page. James H. Bunce, d. 1901 Louisville, Jefferson, KY was not the Mayor of Louisville. Joseph H. Bunce, brother of James was the Mayor. James H. Bunce was also a steamboat Captain. Both James and Joseph were in Henderson, Henderson, KY before going to Louisville. I am a Mullin and George descendant and have researched carefully to prove that James and Joseph were brothers and had many connections with the Mullin and George families of Henderson and Louisville, KY. Thank you.

[On pp. 94-95 of Bunce Genealogy and History is a list of sources and references, used to compile this genealogy and history but it was incomplete; did not provide dates of publishing or authors, so it is not included here. A more complete list of SOURCES is available for both the original history and the hypertext supplement.]
Will appreciate hearing from anyone who has any records on the people named below and others in this book.
BUNCE—We have genealogy of Thomas Bunce (wife Susanna Bull) who came to America from England in 1632, settled in Massachusetts and moved to Hartford, Conn. in 1636, down through 5th generation of his descendants, one of which should have been Peter Bunce’s father who likely was the 6th generation but not for sure. Possibly the genealogy of Thomas Bunce is not complete. The Hartford and Wethersfield, Conn. vital statistics, Oliver-Miner Genealogy and Hinman works indicate that probably only four grandsons of the settler Thomas Bunce—Joseph, Jonathan, John and James—left male descendants. There are probably only two or three generations between Peter Bunce and one of these. Dates indicate Peter Bunce’s father would have been one of the children of the 6th generation. We lack one or two generations of making the connection of Thomas Bunce descendants with Peter Bunce. Record is probably in Connecticut or New York, possibly Western New York.
GRAY—Note on paper in Elisha D. and Isabel C. (Millhollen) Jackson’s Bible showed James Gray, Ft. Wayne, Ind. His left nostril was shot off in the war. David Millhollen and Mary Gray were married at Salisbury, N.C. in 1815. Gray family may have moved to Indiana about time Jacksons moved there. Found record of two James Gray in Oregon, not far from Millhollens.
JACKSON—Elisha D. Jackson said he was second cousin of General Stonewall Jackson. Note left said Isabel C. (Millhollen) Jackson was first cousin. Elisha also possibly related by marriage to Dolly (Payne) Madison, wife of President Madison.
KRESS—Mary Bolender (Kress) Bunce, wife of Peter Bunce, Jr., said she was a second cousin to S. H. Kress and brothers, verified by Jones family in New York. See Kress Line.
MEHAFFEY—Estella M. (Mehaffey) Bunce said that 1 of four Mehaffey brothers who came to America spelled his name Mahaffey. James Mehaffey, her father, was born near Cambridge, Ohio. See Mehaffey Line. Need record of James’ parents and [their] children.
MILHOLLEN—David Millhollen’s father came to America in 1792, settled in Pennsylvania, later moved to Salisbury district, N.C. Need record of David’s father and family.
CARLE—G. K. Bunce left handwritten record of his marriage to Lucy Carle 1885-88, but no record of their son who probably was taken by Lucy’s brother Francis (Frank) Carle to raise and given Carle name with no [formal] adoption. In 1919, Frank lived in Jersey City, N.J. Wm. Carle, Frank’s brother, wrote G. K. Bunce in 1930’s he had GKB’s son’s address in White Plains, N.Y., and would visit him. Need name and last address of G.K.B.’s son [by Lucy Carle].
Much research could be done in connection with other people named in this book. It may be that we will be able to issue a supplement to this book.
