Loop Highway. While I am particularly interested in Sheridan McElroy, who built the house we own there, I am also interested in finding any and all information about individuals or families who lived there between 1891 and the 1960s or who knew people who lived there. I am also interested in any photos people may have of the Silverton area, even if they were taken while visiting, camping, and so on. I have all of the Woodhouse books, nearly all available census records, and the Polk directories that were available at the Everett Public Library.
