Ola Huggles
ByJl'STINE
WEATIIKRKORD
The 1952. Ola Uuggles and
her husband. Walter, came to
Heppner to live because their
older son Charles was in busi
ness here They bought the
Fred Mankin place where they
lived until Walter's death in
10. when Ola moved into one
of the Green Apartments. Last
Saturday she left there to
move to The Dulles.
Because she is a descendant
of Virginia Dare, the first
English child born in the
ill-fated American colony at
Roanoke Island where Virgi
nia's parents settled in 1597
and also of Samuel Osgood
(1748 1813), the first postmas
ter general to serve under the
United States Constitution, as
one talks with Ola Kuggles one
gains glimpses into unusual
chapters in U.S. History.
Before coming to Heppner,
Ola and Walter and their
children lived in Sherman
County in the Wasco-Moro
area where Walter and his
brother, Oscar, who married
one of Ola's sisters, were
pioneer farmers. Ola was a
leader of women's groups and
very active in the Federated
Womens Clubs of Oregon. She
continued being active in Mor
row County with her member
ship in the Methodist Church,
the Hebekah Lodge, the
Eastern Star and White
Shrine, the Heppner Garden
Club and the Tuesday Morning
Pinochle Club of which she is
now the only original member.
Several of these groups have
had farewell parties for her
recently.
Ola says that when she
carne here to live and knew
very few persons, the then
extension leader Mrs. Purvine
took her to visit the various
county extension units, and
later Ola became county
chairman for extension
groups.
She speaks proudly of her
husband Walter whose grand
parents came to Oregon via
California from Missouri.
They brought 18 slaves with
them to California where they
set them all free. The descen
dants of these slaves, who all
adopted the name Ruggles,
are now prospering. Walter
went to Fort Lewis at the
beginning of World War I, but
was released and sent home
because he w as a farmer with
a family. The Ruggles child
ren were Charles, Laura (now
Twillegar) who lives in
Prineville and a younger son,
Phil.
Ola recalls having an invita
tion to the dedication of the
Hill Museum at Maryhill and
seeing Sam Hill and Queen
Marie of Rumania. Ola has
done some china and some oil
painting. She has several
proofs of her talent an
interesting view of the Indians
fishing at the Celilo Rapids
and another attractive paint
ing of three geese in flight. She
started painting when her
older sister was taking lessons
from a Mr. Roberts and let
young Ola use whatever paint
was left on her palette.
Although Ola still has old
friends in Sherman County
and in The Dalles whom she
expects to see again in her
new location, she is hoping
that her Morrow County
friends will write to her and
will stop to visit her when they
are in The Dalles. Her new
apartment is in the Camlu
Retirement Home at 910
Cherry Height Road, The
Dalles, 97058.
