Abstract
A handwritten transcript of a portion of the travel diary that Jared Fox kept while emigrating to and living in the Oregon Territory, and documentation concerning the transcript's authorship. Jared Fox (1805-1865) emigrated to Oregon in 1852, but left the following year. It is believed that Fox's grandson-in-law, C. C. Bennett (1856-1935), wrote the transcript of Fox's account over a period of time from the late 1870s to the 1920s.
