Early Life: The Whitman Mission
The story of The Whitman Mission is much more than captured here, but the highlights I’ve tried to capture via current online works, biographies of Marcus and Narcissa Whitman, as well as some of the local lore.
There are many places to look for information in this digital age, and no end of available links. Simply google Whitman Mission and page after page of history erupts.
I did not dwell on the massacre of the Whitman’s, but it is what brought about so many changes to history and why the Whitman Mission exists today.
I hope this brief travel through time will encourage you to look at your own communities, and of course, entice you to mine.

Sheryl, thank you for investing yourself in new ways. We’ve talked so much about your role as a storyteller. Your Incidental Interviews bring so many fabulous stories to the world. Now, these new stories told in your words with pictures create a fantastic picture of where we live. I think they’re great examples of just what kinds of media services you can deliver to a business who needs help telling their story.
