[or-roots] Oregon pictures before and after

[cjp joppe]

Thank you Bob!
WOWIE what a jackpot! my goodness. Anyone with family
history in Oregon will certainly appreciate this site.
 There are so many wonderful period 1880-early 1900
photos.  People places things and events. Even if you
don't find a relative, the photos and events of
'their' hometown areas put things into a wonderful
historical perspective. I have only a few family
photos of this era, but seeing the other photos of
their era in a local context seems to enhance them.
 
Thank you for sharing this site with us.  It is a
delight to explore.
