<p class="MsoNormal">John and Elizabeth Baker are buried in unmarked graves at Pleasant View Cemetery, located in Clackamas County between Wilsonville and Sherwood. In 2020, some of the Baker descendants decided to honor them with an upright granite headstone
to acknowledge them, and their children, whose names will be listed on the back of the stone. This led to two years of research across several states. The family is still finalizing the artwork for the monument, but here is their story.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">This summer and fall Oregon State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) is asking Oregonians how Oregon’s heritage is special to them in a series of 90-minute virtual public meetings and an online survey to direct
state-wide preservation goals for the 2024-2029 Oregon Preservation Plan. The SHPO is an office of Oregon Heritage.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">Meetings will focus on a specific region or topic, but all are welcome to attend one or more of the meetings. At the regional meetings participants will identify what issues matter most, how to best preserve
the state’s history, and what government agencies, cultural institutions, and each Oregonian can do. Topic-based meetings will discuss how the heritage community can better address diversity, equity, and inclusion in cultural resource programs, disaster preparedness
and response, and planning for cultural resources in development and infrastructure projects. The meetings will be held Wednesday evenings from 6:30 to 8:00, June through September by Zoom video and teleconference.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt"><b>Meetings<o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">The virtual meetings are organized by region and some by topic. All meetings are 6:30-8pm. Register for individual meeting by selecting the link.
