Becky Hogenkamp, librarian at South Wasco County Library in Maupin, Oregon contacted me the recently to share something she is really excited about. An old book with the caption “Tygh Valley Drug Store” has been donated to the library. It contains prescription blanks from November 1904 to October 1905 of patients of Dr. John L. Elwood. Becky says the book contains many local family names in the Maupin-Tygh Valley area and what they were prescribed. Becky has been attempting to gather as much data for research in the library as possible She will continue to let us know when new materials arrive at the library and is very helpful answering queries.
