Transcripts of Interviews of South Tillamook County People
Updated July 19, 2011
Please understand that these are transcripts of actual interviews. As such they include everything said or heard on the tape. Sometimes there are many 'uhs', 'ums', 'hms' etc. Many times people start with one thought and then interrupt that comment with comments about something else, so that some interviews are difficult to follow.
It's my hope to some day extract the important information from the interviews and write separate articles from each interview that are easier to read and understand. But for now . . .
A very huge and sincere thank you goes to Darleen Cole who spent hours and hours listening to tapes of interviews and transcribing everything said in the interviews. She not only did a superb job but she did the very tedious transcribing with a very kind smile and gracious spirit!
Yes, there are many more transcriptions of interviews to come. I'm slowly rereading the interviews and doing a small amount of reformatting before putting them online. Dean
