It has long been felt by Daugh ters of the American- Revolution ineinbers that a caretaker's cot tage must oe built adjacent to their pioneer mothers' memorial cabin located In Champocg Slate Park near Newberg, so that the histori cal mementos boused in the pio neer mothers' memorial cabin could be open to the publlo at all times and also to afford care and protection to these precious heir looms of the pioneer period of Ore gon. . ' i However, it remained for Mrs. Allan E. McLean, state regent of the Daughters or the 'American Revolution to achieve this hoped for goal. With her enthusiasm, hard work and undiminished ener gy, ably supported by her husband, who gave many hours of his time to obtaining donations of building materials, the caretaker's cottage has been built. Champoeg State Park, occupies a unique place In the history of the Oregon country. It was on this spot that th- historical meeting was held which culminated in the organization of Oregon's Territorial Government and a marker has been orcstsd in the park commem orating this event. In early times there' was a large settlement here located on the banks of the Willamette river and named - Champoeg. However the flood of 1BG1 completely destroyed this settlement and fit was never rebuilt. It was here that the Oregon State Society Daughters of the American Revolution erected their pioneer mothers' memorial cabin in 1929 and it was here also, on June 14, 1963, that the corner stone was laid for the curator's cottage. Previous to Mrs. McLean's re gime, a start had been made to ward acquiring a sum sufficient for this building, but it remained In the nebulous state until Mrs. McLean became, slate regent. Several country fairs were held at Champoeg, In Uie yard oi the pioneer mothers' memorial cabin and each chapter gave contribu tions toward the building fund un til the sum of 112,000 was reached, '.low. the cottage is built and the building committee, with Mrs.: John Y. Richardson as chairman, the thirty chapters and their members who worked achieving this goal, and Mr. and Mrs. McLean, all feel it was worth the effort. Debts are all paid and the curator's cot tage Is a reality. The cottage Is appropriately fur nished and carektakers Mr. and Mrs. O, Shaw, have moved In. Arrangements have been made at the suggestion of the 8tate of Oregon to discontinue the old mu seum at Champoeg State Park and a number of valuable articles have been loaned to the Daughters of the American Revolution pioneer moth ers' memorial cabin, so that In the future, there will be only one mu seum In the state park at Cham poeg.
