AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Richard P. Matthews for the Master of Arts in History presented 4 November, 1988. Title: Limited Horizons on the Oregon Frontier: East Tualatin Plains and the Town of Hillsboro, Washington county, 1840 - 1890. APPROVED BY MEMBE~~~ THESIS COMMITTEE: David Johns n, ~on B. Dodds Michael Reardon Daniel O'Toole The evolution of the small towns that originated in Oregon's settlement communities remains undocumented in the literature of the state's history for the most part. Those .::: accounts that do exist are often amateurish, and fail to establish the social and economic links between Oregon's frontier towns to the agricultural communities in which they appeared. The purpose of the thesis is to investigate an early settlement community and the small town that grew up in its midst in order to better understand the ideological relationship between farmers and townsmen that helped shape Oregon's small towns.

The period of study begins when the British owned Hudson’s Bay Company began to farm land in and around Fort Vancouver in 1825, and ends in 1861—during the time when agrarian settlement was beginning to expand east of the Cascade Mountains. Given that agriculture

And it becomes us humbly to acknowledge our defender…as our protector and preserver, and inflows a continuance of his care and watchfulness over us and wisdom to direct us in the discharge of the duties devolving on us. This country has once been populated by powerful tribes of Indians but it has [passed] the great [disputes] of human events to reduce them to mere shadows of their former greatness; thus removing the chief obstructions to the entrance of civilization and offering a way for the introduction of Christianity where ignorance, superstition, and idolatry have reigned uncontrolled so many ages. There has perhaps been few colonies [located] in North America under the…circumstances in which the present settlers of this territory are placed. We are situated in a portion of country remote from civilized nations among the few remaining savages who are the original proprietors of this soil.

  • A~Bington ;!)Istorical ~Uarttrl!
    VOL. XlV., No.3 July, 1923 utbt .a~bington ;!)istorical ~uarttrl!, INRODUCTION OF CATTLE INTO THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST The domestic animals have enabled the European peoples to take and hold economic possession of new lands. Where grass grows and water nms cattle have helped man to live; their leather has clothed his feet; their milk and flesh have furnished food; their sturdy shoulders have drawn his loads. The Oregon country is well adapted to all kinds of livestock and early in its history the future possibilities of the cattle industries were noted. The first cattle in the Pacific Northwest were brought to Nootka Sound during the time that the Spanish Government kept an armed force there to maintain Spanish claims. In 1789, work was begun, but for reasons not known, was discontinued in the late fall, and the expedition withdrew. The Spaniards under the command of Eliza, reoccupied the site in 1790, and constructed a fort and buildings that housed the garrison until the final evacua­ tion in 1795. Cattle were brought, either from Mexico or Cali­ fornia, that are mentioned in more than one description of Nootka during the period of Spanish occupation. They seem to have been black in color, and are so described by Vancouver who arrived at Nootka in the last days of August, 1792. He says: "The poultry, consisting of fowls and turkies, was in excellent order as were the black cattle and the swine". The unknown author of the "New Vancouver Journal" gives more information regarding the livestock at Nootka : "In the evening the Governor [Quadra] sent a couple of fine sheep with a large stock of cabbages, &c.

  • Geographic Implications of the Fiddling Tradition in Oklahoma
    GEOGRAPHIC IMPLICATIONS OF THE FIDDLING TRADITION IN OKLAHOMA By JAMES HUBERT RENNER 1/ Bachelor of Science University of Oregon Eugene, Oregon 1974 Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate College of the Oklahoma State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE May, 1979 ~ /979 7( '-/14q QQp. 2_ c ~W51vfA~ fo+~-- ~)', 0 UNIVERSITY (' LIBRARY GEOGRAPHIC IMPLICATIONS OF THE FIDDLING TRADITION IN OKLAHOMA Thesis Approved: 1,029474- ii PREFACE This thesis is a combination of two longstanding in­ terests--geography and fiddling. The background and origin of this unique study was fostered by Dr. Everett Smith, my undergraduate advisor at the University of Oregon, who first encouraged me to pursue a course of study which would com­ bine the two. Following my graduation of Oregon, I journeyed to Penn State University to attend the first meeting of the emergent Society for a North American Cultural Survey (SNAGS) and to meet Dr. George Carney, who had pioneered geographic re­ search in traditional American music. I later joined the graduate program at Oklahoma State University to work under Carney. While conducting my graduate studies, I received a Youthgrant from the National Endowment for_ the Humanities to establish an Archive of Oklahoma Fiddlers. This project was begun in the summer of 1976 and completed in the fall of 1977. During this same period of time, I was chosen to serve as "Resident Folk Artist" for the Oklahoma Arts and Humanities Council. Both of these experiences provided in­ valuable experience and information concerning music and culture in Oklahoma which became the foundation of this re­ search.
