I just love this list. You all have such interesting stories and I
always find something intriguing within. I wish I knew the year of the
birth in the library. I am having a running argument with my cousin
about just such an occurrence. My grandmother claimed to have given
birth in a store in about 1923 and my cousin insists that would be
impossible.
On another note, I had a Dr. Pollard who delivered my first son, but
that was in California in 1962. Wonder if he was related to the Dr.
Pollard below?

:
I was also born in the Library. My mom said she got to stay in
the hall
because there were no rooms. My little brother was born in the
NEW
facility.
Durlams Bakery made the cake each year, but they used California
strawberries because they could not count on the local ones
being ripe in
time. Do you remember the merry-go-round that came in with the
carnival. I
actually got old enough to ride the horses that moved up and
down before it
quit coming.
We lived on the highway that goes to Sweet Home. [My nephew has
the place
now.] We went to Crowfoot. They have closed it now. Seems a
shame. Of
course it was OLD when my family started there in the early 50s.
Lets rephrase that. I went to Crowfoot. My sister went to
Crowfoot,
Waterloo, then back to Crowfoot. Little Brother started at
Crowfoot then
spent the rest of grade school at Waterloo. His friends from
the
neighborhood stayed at Crowfoot. It seemed to be just where the
house was
located.
Are we getting old? We now remember history.
I notice that you are also on the dry side now.

> Hello Barbra, yes it was some time ago, now you can get an
idea of how old
I am. There was also a Dr Pollard and Dr Blachard in Lebanon. My
younger
brother and sister were born in the 'now Lebanon Library' when
it was the
Hospital. I started primary grade school at Greenacres, then
went to the two
room school at Griggs befor we moved to Scio, on the old
Shelburn Rd. I
remember the old pioneer buildings there that now you only see
in photos at
the Salem Public Historical on line photo library. Oh yes and
the year was
not complete unless you attended the annual Lebanon Strawberry
Festival and
had some of that strawberry shortcake! It is interesting to see
how the
Valley has grown and changed over the years. Mary in The Dalles

Do any of you remember Dr. Ralph E. Herron born Aug. 4, 1904 near
Monroe in Benton County. Died at Lebanon Community Hospital. He saved
My life in 1943 in the old Hospital. With Penicillin. I and my brother
John were both born at home on Brushcreek Road out of Crawfordsville,
Linn, Oregon.
The Lebanon, Linn, Oregon Newspaper had a lot about him when he
died.. As well as the 50 th birthday of the Lebanon, Hospital.

Lola Rosella Newton Perkins.
