March 1, 2024 - I finally just added the updated Beaver Cemetery list that has information about people buried in the cemetery. Yes, I am working on the other cemeteries. I will soon add clippings from the Cloverdale Courier newspater. Check out the newspaper articles from the 1890 AND 1891 Tillamook Headlight newspaper that are now online! There are 125 stories to read on Stories About South Tillamook County People, Places and Events.  And there are currently 40 transcripts of interviews on Transcripts of Interviews With People of South Tillamook County.

Most of the information on this site at this point is under the links of Old Newspaper Articles, Stories About South Tillamook County and Transcripts.

Excerpts from the Lars John Redberg Diaries of 1909 - 1912 of Life in South Tillamook County especially of Oretown,Oregon.

These entries are rich with details of ships that frequented Nestucca Bay, drownings, the building of the Oretown Church and Oretown Cheese Factory, some births and deaths and much day to day life in South Tillamook County! I am so very impressed with all that the local pioneers had to know and do to live life. There are now 21 pages of entries.
