I found references to info in OGN if someone by chance has a copy. Aboutmovies 22:37, 27 March 2007 (UTC)Reply

What do you need from OGN? Katr67 16:55, 11 July 2007 (UTC)Reply
Here's what I got on Hauxhurst:
  1. An obscure post office in the Tillamook area called Barnegat was run by a Mrs. Biggs, who was Hauxhurst's daughter.
  2. Cape Meares Lake was formed from Biggs Cove after some engineering by the USCE to fix a breach of the Bayocean peninsula. The former cove was named for John A. Biggs, son-in-law of Hauxhurst (and, I assume, husband of Mrs. Biggs, above).
  3. Pitcher Point in the same vicinity was named by Hauxhurst because of a prominent rock that resembled a milk jug. The rock doesn't exist anymore.
Do you think any of that should go in the article? Katr67 01:13, 12 July 2007 (UTC)Reply
I think the last bit about Pitcher Point could go in since I'm guessing the point is still there and named that, even though the milk jug is gone. Even the bit about the daughter being a postmaster could go at the end. Thanks for looking that up. Aboutmovies 16:10, 12 July 2007 (UTC)Reply
