[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Portlandpressherald.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Portlandpressherald.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image is unlicensed for use on Wikipedia and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Gay Cdn (talk) (Contr.) 23:28, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Great Fires ref

I see that article quotes a source talking about a couple named "Spofford" -- family history?--SarekOfVulcan 18:09, 1 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] ayuh

yes, in fact the couple were my great grandparents. I was by no means around in 1947 for the fires, but I hear from older family members it was a hell of an afternoon :) Jspofford 17:23, 11 October 2007 (UTC)
