Suggested edit: Hello. I am researching this family and have information to these statements:
One entry shows her name as Parthena Thomison - from the Western States Marriage Index and note added as Mis. Parthen (curl).
---------------------------
She was first married to: James W. Thomison on 2-16-1846. They had one daughter born in 1844 in Missouri named Narcissa. They had their second daughter, Elizabeth on the Oregon Trail in 1847--the year they came in the 1847 wagon train lead by her father, Captain James Curl. James W. Thomison died in the Summer of 1847 outside of The Dalles.
After reaching Oregon, she married Joel Calavan, also on the 1847 4 month after reaching Oregon on 2/20/1848. They had six children together and lived in near Scio, Linn County, Oregon.
She WAS the daughter of James and Anna Maria Curl.

You are correct with this one except that Superintendent James Curl not only was Captain to the 41 wagons you mention but he was overall director of that wagon train, one group from Holt Co. MO, one from Nodaway Co. MO, and one large Baptist Church group from Cole Co., MO. About 212 wagons total and over 350 people, not to mention livestock and oxen, horses and mules. This happened 175 years ago!
