  • 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.

    Staff Analysis and Report to the Board Board Meeting/Work Session Date: June 18, 2019 Board Work Session Senior Lead: Liz Large Department Lead: Joe Crelier Staff Lead SUBJECT: PPS Healthy and Safe Schools Plan, and Board adoption of plan before July 1, 2019 (Use this section to briefly explain the item—2-3 sentences) I. BACKGROUND OAR 581-022-2223 Healthy and Safe School Plans, as amended 4/22/19, requires Oregon school districts to conduct on-going testing of water taps for lead content every six years, starting July 1, 2020. The rule requires each district’s governing board to adopt their district’s Healthy and Safe School Plan by July 1, 2019, and to forward the adopted plan to ODE by July 15, 2019. II. RELATED POLICIES/BEST PRACTICES - 8.60.010-P Risk Management Program - OAR 333-061-0400 Reducing Lead in School Drinking Water (New, effective 1/1/19) - EPA 3Ts for Reducing Lead in Drinking Water in Schools and Childcare Facilities, revised October 2018 III. ANALYSIS OF SITUATION - The requirement for the Healthy and Safe School Plan represents the first time that on-going water testing for lead is required by law in Oregon schools. Additionally, it represents the first time a water testing plan is required to be adopted by the school district governing board. - Not adopting the plan would place the district in non-compliance with ODE Division 22 rules. IV. FISCAL IMPACT - The rule requires a district the size of PPS to test a portion of taps each year. Water sampling and mitigation costs will be occurring annually.

  • 2 Oregon GL Story
    A SKETCH OF THE GRAND LODGE OF OREGON Edited by D. RUFUS CHENEY Hon. Past Grand Master and Past Grand Secretary When the old Oregon Territory, comprising what is now Oregon, Washington, Idaho, and those parts of Montana and Wyoming west of the Rockies, came under the U.S. Flag in 1846, it opened up a vast fertile territory for emigrations from the Eastern states. The frontier at that time was Illinois and Missouri, some 2500 miles from the Pacific Coast. The travel by covered wagon, at about 15 miles per day, consumed more than six months, so the migrations were annual affairs, starting as early as weather would permit and arriving late in the fall. By 1846 Oregon City was the leading community in the Pacific Northwest and had a population of about 400. It was the only incorporated town on the Pacific Coast, and hence was the recognized seat of American judicial authority for territory west of the Rockies. This was evidenced by the filing of the plat of San Francisco, at Oregon City because it was the nearest U.S. Court. It would, therefore, seem but natural that Masonry should be first established at Oregon City. Travel over the Old Oregon Trail was accompanied by severe hardship, suffering, poverty and death. In the 18 migrations between the years 1842-1859 there were over 30,000 deaths over the route. The lot of the pioneer was one of hard work with primitive facilities and few diversions which might be called pleasure. Men seeking each other's welfare and happiness soon established Masonic Lodges.

Appendix; News Articles and Images 1852-Present 42 Introduction Kellogg Lake has been a central geographical feature in Milwaukie for over 160 years, but today most Milwaukie citizens, even the Lake’s immediate neighbors, have little interaction with it. Technically speaking, Kellogg Lake is a man-made “impoundment” with a surface area of about 14 acres. Originally, Kellogg Creek was dammed to power the Standard Mill in 1858 and it served as a mill pond for about three decades. According to the US Army Corps of Engineers (2002), the original stream channel has become masked deep within the lakebed by about 17,500 cubic yards of sediment that is contaminated above legal standards set by the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) for both DDT and Chlordane. It has experienced frequent sewer overflows and is the recipient of a significant amount of stormwater runoff from surrounding residential properties, Lake Rd, and McLoughlin Blvd.
