Shaver, F. A., Arthur P. Rose, R. F. Steele, and A. E. Adams, compilers. "An Illustrated History of Central Oregon." ("Embracing Wasco, Sherman, Gilliam, Wheeler, Crook, Lake, & Klamath Counties") Spokane, WA: Western Historical Publishing Co., 1905. p. 1005. CHARLES H. HOAGLAND is one of the prosperous farmers and leading citizens of Klamath county. He resides some three miles east of Bonanza and was born on March 9, 1863, in Coles county, Illinois. His father. Henry W. Hoagland, came to California in 1852, then went to Oregon and afterward returned to Illinois. Again he crossed the plains, both times with ox teams, the last time being in 1865. He settled a second time in California, and finally, in 1879, came to Klamath county, where he died in 1890. The mother of our subject is Jane Hoagland, who is now living in Central Point, Oregon. There were ten children in the family. Our subject came with his parents in 1865 across the plains to Napa county, California, then moved to Merced county and accompanied them later to Langells valley in 1879. Few settlers were here then and his father purchased the first place that had been taken in the valley, which our subject owns at this time. It is one of the most valuable pieces of land in the county, being very fertile, and on the bottom. The father engaged in farming and stock raising and became very prosperous and had much land and stock but sold all except this quarter before he died. On July 1, 1884, Mr. Hoagland married Miss Margaret Burzan, who was born in Jackson county, Oregon. Her father is deceased and her mother is living in that county now. Six children have been born to our subject and his wife: Bird, wife of Levi McDonald of this valley, Georgia, Emma, Lewis, Fernis and Grace. Mr. Hoagland is a member of the A.O.U.W. and has the distinction of having gained his entire property through his own efforts of industry, since he started here with no means whatever. ******************* Submitted to the Oregon Bios.
