Scappoose Pioneer Homestead #743
Three graves stand in a row, sheltered by a circle of four old mossy oak trees. Were the trees planted in honor of the graves, or was the grave site selected as a peaceful spot between four young trees? This homestead dates back to the earliest days of Scappoose pioneer settlement, with the grave sites marked from 1847 to 1852. Buildings were still standing on this site until the 1960s, but now only the mature trees and grave sites remain.
This historic site is now at risk for development as the nearby regional airport expands, commercial warehouses and public utilities move in, and the Scappoose area continues to grow as a residential suburb of Portland.
