Welcome!

Welcome to the website for the Eric Stewart History Collection, an archival collection housed at the Forest Grove City Library. This collection contains newspaper clippings, pamphlets, photographs, memorabilia and other items dealing with the history of the city of Forest Grove, its businesses, institutions, and the people who lived there. Additional information about several towns within Washington County are also included.

In addition, you will also find, under the Resources page, links to other institutions and websites dealing with local Washington County and Oregon history.
