X00316 Solved!!





Previously, I mentioned X00316 where there were two potential burial locations given for William R. Hoyt. One of them in Eugene Pioneer Cemetery and one in Multnomah Park Cemetery

I have since discovered that William's death registration mentions a burial in the Eugene Pioneer Cemetery:



I contacted someone with the Eugene Pioneer Cemetery Association and there is no stone associated with WIlliam R. Hoyt, so speculation that he is buried there may be based on the death registration alone.

I checked with the Multnomah Park Cemetery burials and they list a burial date for William Hoyt of 14 August 1924, three days after his death. So the more likely situation is that he was buried at Mulnomah Park, rather than first buried at Eugene Pioneer and then relocated later.
