In the year 1852 she was among a party crossing the plains to Oregon and after arriving in the Willamette valley settled in the Waldo hills. There she remained about a year when she came to Salem. Her marriage to Mr. Kightlinger occurred on January 3, 1856. With the exception of the two years from 1866 to 1868, which were spent in Albany, Mr. and Mrs. Kightlinger have been residents of Salem since that time. Mrs. Kightlinger was the mother of six children, namely: Marion, Elmer, Grant, Schuyler, Athalia and Walter--the latter two having preceded her to the grave.
