General Notes: Husband -

Job and his brother Mark came to the Pacific Coast from Stockbridge, Vermont, in 1849, having taken passage on the ship Restless, they reached San Francisco on 1 May 1850. They tried mining around the American River in California for awhile, then went north to Oregon, staying in Milwaukie for about one year. In Oregon they mined the Rogue river mines. They traveled to Washington Territory and Job, with partners Sameul Woodward and J. H. Whitcomb started logging in the Stewart Slough area on Shoalwater Bay (now called Willapa Bay) on 12 August 1853. Hired help in this logging operation were Henry Woodward, James Hamilton, Daniel Cuppy, H. P. Doucett, Captain Charles W. Stewart and Mark Bullard. Later Job and Mark were joined with their brother Seth and they made claims in the Willapa Valley and began farming careers.
Seth Bullard was killed in 1860 when he tried to intervene in a money dispute his brother Mark was having with a hired hand and Seath was stabbed to death possibly by accident.
Mark Bullard had taken up a claim at what is now Menlo in 1853. Mark never married. His land an house were passed on to his nephew, V. M. Bullard after Mark moved to Lakeview, Oregon where he was the founder of that city.
John Bullard came to Pacific County in 1885 but soon left for California, returning in 1996.
Job Bullard served in the Territorial Legislature 1856 to 1857, representing Chehalis County, for in those days it was thought that Menlo was outside Pacific County.
Job's son, Van Marion Bullard, wrote of his father on 15 March 1952. His story of Job Bullard, in his own words is as follows:

" My father Job Bullard came from near Readland, Vermont. When he came west he came around the Horn in a sailing vessel also came through the Straits of Magellan and an incident happened while they were in the Strait of Magellan. The crew went ashore on a little hunting trip and had a good fortune to kill a sea otter, which was very valuable, worth several hundred dollars and a lady worked her passage from New York on this vessel and the crew after killing this Otter came to near mutiny as the Captain wanted the Otter and the crew decided to give it to the lady so the lady got the Otter.
They came up the Pacific Coast stopped at Santa Barbara and finally landed in San Francisco during the 1849 gold strike. Worked about one and one half years on the gold strike mostly on the American River, then on to Milwaukee, Oregon and came overland horseback most of the way with wagons. At Milwaukee he run a tavern.
In 1853 or thereabouts he came to Pacific county, crossing the portage from the Columbia river, came down in whale boats and came to Unity, which now is Ilwaco. They then came down Stewart's Slough just below South Bend, Washington, and hewed out square timbers for three shipments to San Francisco, Calif. This was near the Carruther's place on Stewart's slough. The first cargo they hewed out square timber, shipped to Frisco and got return on that carload. Second carload they never heard from and the third car load froze up in the ice and went to sea. Then he moved up on the farm, Job Bullard Donation Land Claim, Spring of 1854 or 1855."
"One of Daniel Peg Wilson's daughters was Martha Elizabeth Wilson, married to Job Bullard and the family consisted of Marion Van Bullard and Branch Arthur Bullard and daughter Clara A Bullard, who met and married Emmett Soule at the time Daniel Peg Wilson was running the mill at Mill creek and lived on the Old Bullard homestead near Fort Willapa, later called Fort Giesy, which was occupied during the Indian Wars.
The farmers of Willapa Valley which included the Keil people, homesteaded a greater port of the valley, built a substantial Fort which is now Fort Geisy, and worked on their farms in the daytime with their muzzle loaded guns at their sides called old yagers.
My father Job Bullard made the remark that after they had got all fixed up, they wished the Indians would come in and try them The fact was they had the proper intentional fortitude.
The Kiel people were a Suiss Colony that came in from the East and settled here about 1855 were here for some time then moved to their headquarters in Aurora, Oregon.
