I am a great gg granddaughter of Elizabeth Freel and George Wrenn. My family lived with Evaline Wrenn, Elizabeth's oldest child, until she died in 1951. I was old enough to remember her stories. Elizabeth died in Corvallis, not in Wren. She and George Wrenn are buried in a plot in Crystal Lake Cemetery, Corvallis, along with several other family members. During WW2, OAC fraternity brothers vandalized the plot; stones were destroyed. Recently, new stones have been placed by family. There are cemetery records and newspaper articles which substantiate this. They just are not easy to access. The Wren cemetery was so named because the land was donated by George Wrenn and was part of his original homestead. All of this can be proven.
