Knappton Cove
Heritage Center
opens 2015 season
KNAPPTON, Wash. —
At the start of the Memorial
Day weekend the Knappton
Cove Heritage Center and
Museum, located in the his-
toric Pesthouse of the Co-
lumbia River Quarantine
Station, opened its 2015
season to the public with a
presentation on cholera and

Portland State University
Professor Friedrich Schuler

ing how an early cholera
epidemic in Europe affect-
ed immigrants heading to

lished near the mouth of the
Columbia River in 1899.
Capt. Jay Paulsen (re-
tired) then explained the new
U.S. Public Health Service
Fallen Comrade Table ex-
hibit, which will be on dis-
play through November. The
Public Health Service Com-
missioned Corps is one of the
seven uniformed services,
and this exhibit commem-
orates those who gave their
lives to protect, promote and
advance the health and safety
of the nation.
The recent Clatsop Com-
munity College Historic
Preservation class’ repair
work was evident. “We are
so appreciative of CCC in-
structor Lucien Swerdloff
and his students, who to date
have done porch replace-
ments, window repairs and
now have embarked on in-
terior plaster repair to help
save this unique historic
structure,” Nancy Anderson,
the heritage center’s board
president said.
The museum is open
from 1 to 4 p.m. Saturday af-
ternoons through Labor Day,
or any time by appointment.

tage Center is an all volun-
