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.

  • Road to Oregon Written by Dr
    The Road to Oregon Written by Dr. Jim Tompkins, a prominent local historian and the descendant of Oregon Trail immigrants, The Road to Oregon is a good primer on the history of the Oregon Trail. Unit I. The Pioneers: 1800-1840 Who Explored the Oregon Trail? The emigrants of the 1840s were not the first to travel the Oregon Trail. The colorful history of our country makes heroes out of the explorers, mountain men, soldiers, and scientists who opened up the West. In 1540 the Spanish explorer Coronado ventured as far north as present-day Kansas, but the inland routes across the plains remained the sole domain of Native Americans until 1804, when Lewis and Clark skirted the edges on their epic journey of discovery to the Pacific Northwest and Zeb Pike explored the "Great American Desert," as the Great Plains were then known. The Lewis and Clark Expedition had a direct influence on the economy of the West even before the explorers had returned to St. Louis. Private John Colter left the expedition on the way home in 1806 to take up the fur trade business. For the next 20 years the likes of Manuel Lisa, Auguste and Pierre Choteau, William Ashley, James Bridger, Kit Carson, Tom Fitzgerald, and William Sublette roamed the West. These part romantic adventurers, part self-made entrepreneurs, part hermits were called mountain men. By 1829, Jedediah Smith knew more about the West than any other person alive. The Americans became involved in the fur trade in 1810 when John Jacob Astor, at the insistence of his friend Thomas Jefferson, founded the Pacific Fur Company in New York.

    OREGON PIONEER WA-WA A COMPILATION OF ADDRESSES OF CHARLES B. MOORES RELATING TO OREGON PIONEER HISTORY PREFACE The within compilation of addresses represents an accumulation of years. Being reluctant to destroy them we are moved for our own personalsatisfaction, to preserve theni in printed form.They contain much that is commonplace, and much that is purely personal and local in character.There is a great surplus of rhetoric. There is possibly an excess of eulogy. There is considerable repetition.There are probably inaccuracies. Thereisnothing, however, included in the compilation that does not have some bearing on Oregon Pioneer History, and this, at least, gives it sonic value.As but a limited nuniber of copies are to be printed, and these arc solely for gratuitous distribution among a few friends, and others, having some interest in the subjects treated, we send the volume adrift, just as it is, without apology and without elimination.

PUBLISHERS PORTLAND, OREGON REPRINTED, 1975 EMERALD VALLEY CRAFTSMEN COTTAGE GROVE, OREGON ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS MANY VOLUMES have been written on the history of the Oregon Country. The founding of the provisional government in 1843 has been regarded as the most sig- nificant event in the development of the Pacific North- west, but the individuals who conceived and carried out that great project have too long been ignored, with the result that the memory of their deeds is fast fading away. The author, as historian of Multnomah Chapter in Portland of the Daughters of the American Revolution under the regency of Mrs. John Y. Richardson began writing the lives of these founders of the provisional government, devoting three years to research, studying original sources and histories and holding many inter- views with pioneers and descendants, that a knowledge of the lives of these patriotic and far-sighted men might be preserved for all time.

    Walking Tour his guide provides descriptions of a majority of painted panels and photographs. Still there are lots of fun Tsurprises for you to find on your own (hint: don’t pass by the water pipes and electrical panels so fast). The Grand Lodge draws vitality from the personalities and episodes of its past. Built in 1922 as the Masonic and Eastern Star Home, this architecturally stunning property was for 77 years a rest home for Masonic members and their offspring. In 1999, the last residents moved to a new modern Masonic facility immediately to the north. In addition to its Masonic heritage, the Grand Lodge celebrates the long and diverse history of the surrounding community: Atfalati Indians, “retired” fur trappers, and Congregational missionaries; farmers, wine makers, shoemakers, and musicians; the Japanese, the Hawaiian, the Dutch, the German, and the Hispanic. McMenamins has attempted to commemorate and honor all of these people and their traditions through the artwork and photos that fill the hallways and common rooms of the property. The artists who crafted the artwork displayed throughout the property are Kolieha Bush, Joe Cotter, Lyle Hehn, Jennifer Joyce, Steve Niichael, Andrea Perrigo-Langen, Jeanne Ralston, Francisco Rangel, Hadley Skinner, Yolanda Valdés, Karen Veselik, Myrna Yoder, Cathie Joy Young, and Scott Young. Thanks to these creative folks, there is a palpable energy wisping through the hallways. Art and history is on every wall, and a story is around each corner. Set off on a journey of discovery and proceed at your own pace. FIRST FLOOR Foyer The Home is endowed with the fervency and zeal of the orders of Masonry and Eastern Star.
