<div>once again you folks have peeked my interest. I have been trying to find out for years if there was ever a large logging camp near Portland in the 1917 to 1919 time frame. My grandmother was a cook in a logging camp at that time and that is where she met my grandfather who was also a cook in the same logging camp. I have a photo of some of the loggers standing in the camp near a building but can't identify it. It is one of those old wide, about 12 inches wide by about 3-1/2 inches tall. I have several of those old photos from the time frame of about 1910 to 1920.</div>
<div>I sure would like to know the name of the logging camp and if there is any information about it.</div>

<div><font color="black" face="arial">Hi<font color="black" face="arial"> Les,<br><br>Thank you for the information. I will check this link.<br><br>Yes, I can see how my email address would lead you to think I live somewhere between Cottage Grove and Dorena.<br>
In fact I'm a native San Diegan. I did live in Cottage Grove in 2002 and in Eugene from 2003 to 2006. That is not, however, the reason my email is Row River....<br><br>Being from Cottage Grove and interested in genealogy perhaps you have heard the story of how the Row River became the Row after originally being called the North Fork of the Middle Fork of the Willamette. My ggg grandfather was the George Clark referenced in this story. <br>
<br>If you haven't heard the story I'll be happy to share it with you.<br><br>Stephen Clark<br>
