Old Tillamook Headlight 1891 Newspaper Articles About South Tillamook County

Beaver

(It's difficult to tell exactly which areas each item of these articles are referring to. Some of the writers were writing about people who lived in what is now referred to as the Hemlock area, and some were writing about people who lived in what we now consider the Beaver area. Assume that each article is discussing the Beaver area unless I write a comment about it possibly referring to the Hemlock area. db )

2 Jan 1891  I believe that the first 3 paragraphs refer to the Beaver area while the last two paragraphs refer to the Hemlock area. Note that the dark blurb at the bottom must have been tape that had been applied to the old paper before it was copied. You will see other examples of this now and then.

7 Jan 1891  The last paragraph is about the Hemlock area.

23 Jan 1891  This writing is about the Hemlock area.

27 Mar 1891  This entire article is probably written about the Hemlock area, but I have no idea where the Sears school was located.

17 Apr 1891  Mr. Foland lived just east of what is now the entrance to Bixby Road. I'm assuming that all of this article is about the Beaver area.

24 Apr 1891

8 May 1891  Mr. Wallace lived at Hemlock, but the Bunn family lived in what is now Beaver. So perhaps this is written about the area of Beaver - Hemlock.

29 May 1891 #2

24 Sep 1891  This article is about the Hemlock area.
