In order to get products, timber and passengers to the Portland market from as far west as Forest Grove (60 miles) before good roads and railroads were built, farmers used steamboats on the Tualatin River. The timber was mostly used to heat Oswego Iron Company’s iron smelter. From 1869-1871, the Tualatin River Navigation and Manufacturing Company hand-dug the canal between the Tualatin River and Sucker Lake (now Lake Oswego).

  • Historical Overview
    HISTORIC CONTEXT STATEMENT The following is a brief history of Oregon City. The intent is to provide a general overview, rather than a comprehensive history. Setting Oregon City, the county seat of Clackamas County, is located southeast of Portland on the east side of the Willamette River, just below the falls. Its unique topography includes three terraces, which rise above the river, creating an elevation range from about 50 feet above sea level at the riverbank to more than 250 feet above sea level on the upper terrace. The lowest terrace, on which the earliest development occurred, is only two blocks or three streets wide, but stretches northward from the falls for several blocks. Originally, industry was located primarily at the south end of Main Street nearest the falls, which provided power. Commercial, governmental and social/fraternal entities developed along Main Street north of the industrial area. Religious and educational structures also appeared along Main Street, but tended to be grouped north of the commercial core. Residential structures filled in along Main Street, as well as along the side and cross streets. As the city grew, the commercial, governmental and social/fraternal structures expanded northward first, and with time eastward and westward to the side and cross streets. Before the turn of the century, residential neighborhoods and schools were developing on the bluff. Some commercial development also occurred on this middle terrace, but the business center of the city continued to be situated on the lower terrace. Between the 1930s and 1950s, many of the downtown churches relocated to the bluff as well.

  • Willamette Falls Recertification Review Report 2018
    Willamette Falls (LIHI # 33) Recertification Review Report Introduction and Overview This report reviews the application submitted by Portland General Electric (applicant) to the Low Impact Hydropower Institute (LIHI) for LIHI recertification for the Willamette Falls Hydroelectric Project (Facility) located on the Willamette River in Clackamas County, Oregon. The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) relicensed the project (FERC 2233) in 2005 for the operation and maintenance of the 15.18 megawatt run-of-river project. This application review for recertification was conducted using the new, 2nd Edition Handbook that was published in March 2016. Background: The project is located at river mile 26.5 on the Willamette River within the city limits of Oregon City (to the east) and West Linn (to the west) in north-central Oregon, approximately 10 miles from Portland and 40 miles from the Willamette’s confluence with the Columbia River. The project is located in a populated, industrial urban setting at the site of Willamette Falls, a natural waterfall that marks the head of the tidally influenced lower Willamette River. The applicant has operated hydroelectric facilities at the site since 1889. Willamette Falls (the Falls) is a horseshoe-shaped, 40-foot-high, natural waterfall that marks the head of the tidally influenced lower Willamette River. The general project area has been home to hydroelectric generation for more than 125 years, beginning with PGE’s Station A in 1889 and continuing to this day with PGE’s T.W. Sullivan (TWS) Powerhouse, built in 1895. Multiple paper mills have also operated at the Falls for more than a century.

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.

  • Bushnell Family Genealogy, 1945
    BUSHNELL FAMILY GENEALOGY Ancestry and Posterity of FRANCIS BUSHNELL (1580 - 1646) of Horsham, England And Guilford, Connecticut Including Genealogical Notes of other Bushnell Families, whose connections with this branch of the family tree have not been determined. Compiled and written by George Eleazer Bushnell Nashville, Tennessee 1945 Bushnell Genealogy 1 The sudden and untimely death of the family historian, George Eleazer Bushnell, of Nashville, Tennessee, who devoted so many years to the completion of this work, necessitated a complete change in its publication plans and we were required to start anew without familiarity with his painstaking work and vast acquaintance amongst the members of the family. His manuscript, while well arranged, was not yet ready for printing. It has therefore been copied, recopied and edited, However, despite every effort, prepublication funds have not been secured to produce the kind of a book we desire and which Mr. Bushnell's painstaking work deserves. His material is too valuable to be lost in some library's manuscript collection. It is a faithful record of the Bushnell family, more complete than anyone could have anticipated. Time is running out and we have reluctantly decided to make the best use of available funds by producing the "book" by a process of photographic reproduction of the typewritten pages of the revised and edited manuscript. The only deviation from the original consists in slight rearrangement, minor corrections, additional indexing and numbering. We are proud to thus assist in the compiler's labor of love. We are most grateful to those prepublication subscribers listed below, whose faith and patience helped make George Eleazer Bushnell's book thus available to the Bushnell Family.

  • Appendix E: the City's Natural Environment
    APPENDIX E The City’s Natural Environment APPENDIX E The City’s Natural Environment The City’s Environmental Setting General Characteristics Portland is situated at 20 feet above sea level, near the confluence of the Columbia and Willamette rivers, about 65 miles inland from the Pacific Ocean. It lies midway between the lower Coast Range to the west and the high Cascades Range to the east, each about 30 miles distant. Portland’s varied topography includes steep hills, isolated volcanic cones, low rolling hills and extensive flat areas. The area is composed primarily of alluvial deposits and Columbia River basalts. Much of the city is located in the Willamette Valley Plains ecoregion, although steeper portions of the Tualatin Hills on the west side are characteristic of Willamette Valley Hills and Coastal Mountains ecoregions (Clarke and others 1991). Portland has a mild marine climate that is heavily influenced by the mountain ranges east and west of the city. The Coast Range protects the Portland area from Pacific storms, while the Cascades prevent colder continental air masses from invading western Oregon. In winter, the average temperature is 40°F and the average minimum temperature is 34°F. In summer the average temperature is 65°F with an average daily maximum of 74 to 78°F (Rockey 2002). The Cascades also lift moisture-laden westerly winds from the Pacific, driving local rainfall patterns. Average annual rainfall in the Portland area is approximately 37 inches. Nearly 90 percent of the annual rainfall occurs from October through May. Only 9 percent of the annual rainfall occurs between June and September, with 3 percent in July and August.

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.

  • A VISION for SALMON and STEELHEAD Goals to Restore Thriving Salmon and Steelhead to the Columbia River Basin
    A VISION for SALMON and STEELHEAD Goals to Restore Thriving Salmon and Steelhead to the Columbia River Basin Phase 1 Report of the Columbia Basin Partnership Task Force of the Marine Fisheries Advisor y Committee I appreciate that the Columbia Basin Partnership has proven to be a unique forum of people representing diverse regional sovereigns and stakeholders with their own discrete missions and clearly focused on working together, at times outside of their comfort zones, to collaboratively develop far reaching aspirational goals for salmon and steelhead across the Columbia River Basin. — Bob Austin, Upper Snake River Tribes The Columbia Basin Partnership Task Force was convened in 2017 by NOAA Fisheries and the Marine Fisheries Advisory Committee to develop shared goals and a comprehensive vision for the future of Columbia Basin salmon and steelhead. The Task Force is an unprecedented collaboration of different interests from across the Basin landscape—environmental, fishing, agricultural, utility, and river-user groups; local recovery groups; the states of Idaho, Montana, Washington, and Oregon; and federally recognized tribes. The process arose from growing frustration across the region with uneven progress and conflicts around fish conservation and restoration efforts and a widespread desire to find a better way. This report presents a shared purpose gained through these collaborations and envisions a future where coming generations enjoy healthy and abundant salmon and steelhead runs across the Columbia Basin.
