Any republication, retransmission, reproduction, or sale of all or part of this curriculum is prohibited. Introduction Welcome to the Grand Ronde Tribal History curriculum unit. We are thankful that you are taking the time to learn and teach this curriculum to your class. This unit has truly been a journey. It began as a pilot project in the fall of 2013 that was brought about by the need in Oregon schools for historically accurate and culturally relevant curriculum about Oregon Native Americans and as a response to countless requests from Oregon teachers for classroom- ready materials on Native Americans. The process of creating the curriculum was a Tribal wide effort. It involved the Tribe’s Education Department, Tribal Library, Land and Culture Department, Public Affairs, and other Tribal staff. The project would not have been possible without the support and direction of the Tribal Council. As the creation was taking place the Willamina School District agreed to serve as a partner in the project and allow their fourth grade teachers to pilot it during the 2013-2014 academic year. It was also piloted by one teacher from the Pleasant Hill School District. Once teachers began implementing the curriculum, feedback was received regarding the effectiveness of lesson delivery and revisions were made accordingly. The teachers allowed Tribal staff to visit during the lessons to observe how students responded to the curriculum design and worked after school to brainstorm new strategies for the lessons and provide insight from the classroom teacher perspective. -

Jeannette Baum AUGUST STANGE and STANGE
Jeannette Baum AUGUST STANGE AND STANGE MANOR JB: As I recall, Mr. And Mrs. Stange came to La Grande with their two daughters. They lived in a house now occupied by the Chinese restaurant on Fourth Street while they were building their lovely manor on the hill. That was about 1910. I: I believe the Mt. Emily Lumber Company was started by August Stange. JB: That is correct. He bought Bowman Hicks Lumber and renamed it Mt. Emily Lumber. I: Do you know why they came to La Grande specifically? JB: I suppose for lumber. I: Perhaps he learned of the sale of Bowman Hicks through a national advertisement? JB: That could be. The same thing happened with Mr. Hoffman. He was in Tennessee, and came west to take advantage of the timber. He bought a lumberyard in Union. These people came west to take advantage of a more lucrative situation. I: Did you ever hear of a brother who may have been here before August arrived? JB: I was never aware of a brother. I: When did you first meet or learn about the Stanges? JB: We came to La Grande after the war. You didn’t come into La Grande and not know about the Stanges because their house, itself, attracted attention. David, my husband, admired the house so extensively I think that, in the back of his mind, he thought he would own that house. The first time I saw the house inside is when we went to look at it in early 1962, when it went on the market. -

inaugural report Oregon Cultural Trust fy 2003 – fy 2006 Grant dollars from the Cultural Trust are transformational. In historic Oregon City, they helped bring a more stable operating structure to separate organizations with marginal resources. As a result, we continue to share Oregon’s earliest stories with tens of thousands of visitors, many of them students, every year. —David Porter Clackamas Heritage Partners September 2007 Dear Oregon Cultural Trust supporters and interested Oregonians: With genuine pride we present the Oregon Cultural Trust’s inaugural report from the launch of the Trust in December 2002 through June 30, 2006 (the end of fiscal year 2006). It features the people, the process, the challenges and the success stories. While those years were difficult financial ones for the State, the Trust forged ahead in an inventive and creative manner. Our accomplishments were made possible by a small, agile and highly committed staff; a dedicated, hands-on board of directors; many enthusiastic partners throughout the state; and widespread public buy-in. As this inaugural report shows, the measurable results, given the financial environ- ment, are almost astonishing. In brief, more than $10 million was raised; this came primarily from 10,500 donors who took advantage of Oregon’s unique and generous cultural tax credit. It also came from those who purchased the cultural license plate, those who made gifts beyond the tax credit provision, and from foundations and in-kind corporate gifts. Through June 30, 2006, 262 grants to statewide partners, county coalitions and cultural organizations in all parts of Oregon totaled $2,418,343. -

They have been doing so since time immemorial, an important indigenous concept which describes a time continuum that spans from ancient times to present day. In post- contact years, interactions expanded to include explorers, traders and missionaries, who brought with them new opportunities for trade and intermarriage as well as the devastating circumstances brought by disease, warfare, and the reservation era. Through cultural adaptation and uninterrupted treaty rights, the CTUIR never ceased to continue to travel to the lower Columbia and Willamette River and falls for seasonal traditional practice and for other purposes. -

Ropology Presented on January 28, 1987
AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Patrick Thomison for the degree of Masterof Arts in Interdisciplinary Studies in Anthropology/Sociology/Anth- ropology presentedon January 28, 1987. Title: When Celilo Was Celilo: An Analysis of Salmon Use During the Past 11,000 Years-in TheColumbia Plateau. Abstract Approved: The presence and significance of salmonfor prehis- toric and aboriginal people of the ColumbiaPlateau is a matter of considerable debateamong anthropologists, archaeologists and historians. Data from over 100 arch- aeological sites are scrutinized inthe light of an ex- ample salmon fishery developed fromethnographic and archaeological informationon aboriginal salmon dependen- cies and exploitation in the locale ofThe Dalles on the central Columbia. The research incorporatesa cultural ecology orientation. Data from prehistoric sites of the ColumbiaPlateau do not conform preciselyto The Dalles fishery example and strongly suggest botha temporal and spatial variation in salmon use and culturalpatterning and therefore call to question the presumption of theprimary relevancy of salmon to cultural patterningthroughout the Plateau. Other resources, includingespecially botanical species, appear to have an importance too often overlooked. Other riverine and terrestrial mammal foodresources are presumed to have a lesser prehistoric importance, though the archaeological record actuallysupports the importance of resources other than salmonas having per- vasive affects on cultural patterning in the Columbia Plateau. Data show that it was not until -
Henry Larcom Abbot 1831-1927
NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA BIOGRAPHICAL MEMOIRS VOLUME XIII FIRST MEMOIR BIOGRAPHICAL MEMOIR OF HENRY LARCOM ABBOT 1831-1927 BY CHARLES GREELEY ABBOT PRESENTED TO THE ACADEMY AT THE ANNUAL MEETING, 1929 HENRY LARCOM ABBOT 1831-1927 BY CHARGES GREKLEY ABBOT Chapter I Ancestry Henry Larcom Abbot, Brigadier General, Corps of Engi- neers, U. S. Army, member of the National Academy of Sciences, was born at Beverly, Essex County, Massachusetts, August 13, 1831. He died on October 1, 1927, at Cambridge, Massachusetts, aged 96 years. He traced his descent in the male line from George Abbot, said to be a native of Yorkshire, England, who settled at Andover, Massachusetts, in the year 1642. Through early intermarriage, this line is closely con- nected with that of the descendants of George Abbott of Row- ley, Essex County, Massachusetts. The Abbots of Andover were farmers, highly respected by their townsmen, and often intrusted with elective office in town, church, and school affairs. In the fifth generation, de- scended through John, eldest son of George Abbot of An- dover,1 Abiel Abbot, a great-grandfather of General Abbot, removed from Andover to settle in Wilton, Hillsborough County, New Hampshire, in the year 1763. He made his farm from the wilderness on "Abbot Hill" in the southern part of the township. Having cleared two acres and built a two-story house and barn, he married Dorcas Abbot and moved into the house with his bride before the doors were hung, in November, 1764. They had thirteen children, of whom the fourth, Ezra Abbot, born February 8, 1772, was grandfather to our propo- s^tus.
