 John Tigard House Collection - Selected Items

 Red Velvet Historical Photo Album

This album belonged to Rosa Hohman Tigard, wife of Charles F. Tigard. It contains photos of early Tigard residents taken primarily between the years 1890 and 1910. Handwritten notations under the photos were added by Rosa's daughter, Grace Tigard Houghton with a few notated by Rosa herself. The album was donated to the Tigard Historical Association by David and Sandra Tigard.
