Dr. Peg Gilbert, //Pacific University and Forest Grove: A Look Into the Past//

"Forest Grove has many handsome houses that were built during the 19th century. Three are pictured here: one still stands and is in use, the other two are gone.

//The Marsh House// Photo 38] stands on College way, across from the campus. It was built in 1879-80 when President Marsh and his family were living in the house next south of this house. President Marsh died in 1879, but his widow and children lived in this house for many years after his death. The house now serves as classrooms and office for the Music dept.

//The Ward mansion// above]. Little is known about this house except for the owner -- Dr. Daniel W. Ward and its location -- on the east side of A Street between Pacific Avenue and 21st Avenue.

//The Rogers house// Photo 40] was built in 1893 by Dr. George Rogers, a retired dentist. Dr. Rogers died in 1900, but his widow, Adeline Rogers, lived in this house until her death in 1922. The house was built in the midst of a woods that is now called Rogers Park. The architecture, furnishing, and landscaping of this house were all elegant. The house was torn down about 1940, and the block of land it stood on became a city park."
