Benjamin Franklin KOONTZ⁶⁷ was born on 11 February 1826 in Yorktown, Delaware County, Indiana.⁶⁷ In 1850 he was a Miner.⁶⁷ He appeared in the census on 28 October 1850 in El Dorado County, California.⁶⁷ Benjamin died on 8 February 1868 at the age of 41 in Clarks Creek, Baker County, Origon.⁶⁷ He was buried in 1868 in Near Family Home, Burnt River, Champoeg County, Oregon.⁶⁷ Cause of Death:<CAUS> Exposure to cold weather
General Notes: Scotch-Irish and German parentage-- Benjamin's grandfather, Jacob Koontz, Sr., came from Germany to America during the 18th century. Jacob settled in Virginia, married and reared his family there. His youngest son, Jacob Koontz, Jr., grew up, married Deborah Combs, about 1816 in Virginia, then moved to Brownsville, Ohio and then eventually moved to Indiana where Benjamin Franklin Koontz was born, grew up and married.

Benjamin, being a daring and venturesome youth, at the early ageof 23, became interested in the discovery of gold in California. In 1849, he persuaded his brother-in-law, William Huntington, to accompany him to California. The two men were so industrious and diligent that by the following summer they had accumulated sizeable fortunes and decided to return East for their families. By the early spring of 1851, they had gotten together and organized a huge ox-drawn wagon train which they financed largely themselves.

BRINGS FAMILY WEST Although on the way West they did not encounter any Indians, actually on the warpath, they were followed, harassed and delayed by them and kept in a continual state of unrest. The wagon train was often held up by sickness and death.That dread disease; Cholera, struck and took its toll. In 1852, the William Huntington family lost two daughters. The sorrowing mother tore up her wedding gown from which she made burial dresses for the children. At last the Rockies were reached but not without many hardships.

William Huntington, being a minister and having had a years experience in a mining camp, had decided along with his wife before starting on their long westward journey, they would not bring up their family in a mining district, but would instead join his brother living in the agricultural district of southwestern Washington. When the wagon train reached southern Idaho, in spite of much fruitless persuasion, they continued their journey on the Old Oregon Trail while the Koontz portion, with its followers, turned slightly to the south toward northern California, which they reached late in the fall. They remained in the vicinity of Sacramento for 12 years where Benjamin Franklin added to his already considerable fortune by engaging in the mercantile business, mining and other lines. During the spring of 1860, the Koontz party was joined by his sister Eliza Jane and William Huntington's family, Sarah and Jack Guthrie's family and Tabor Reed, his young nephew. The party having come from the East coast by ocean steamer by way of the Isthmus of Panama.

OREGON IN UNION Oregon was admitted to the union on St. Valentine's Day of 1859 while the eastern part of the state was still a wilderness, the only white settlement was the Indian Mission at The Dalles. During the winter of 1862, the whole country was electrified with the surprising news that on October 24, 1861, a party of men under the leadership of Dave Littlefield were searching for the "Lost Blue Bucket Mine". While prospecting, one of the men in the party discovered gold in good paying quantities at a place a few mile southwest of thepresent Baker, Oregon. In honor of its discoverer, Henry Griffin, the place was named Griffin's Gulch. The men having only prospector's tools, a gold pan, pick and shovel, plunged into work. Later that winter, needing food and gum boots, they make their way to Walla Walla, WA , where they paid for their purchases in gold dust and nuggets. The news spread fast and the country went wild with excitement.

NEWS OF GOLD STRIKE The news of the rich gold strike in eastern Oregon soon reached the Koontz party in northern California and they quickly prepared to answer the call of gold. It would take a year for Benjamin Franklin to dispose of his interest there but he promptly went to work and by the spring of 1863 embarked from San Francisco for Portland, Oregon. Here they purchased covered wagon outfits, this time horse-drawn and se Parents: Jacob KOONTZ and Deborah COMBS.
