A massacre of the Waillatpu Missionaries by the Cayuse Indians near #WallaWalla changed the history of the western part of North America, including #Oregon and #Washington to #BritishColumbia, and maybe, #Yukon -- The measles did more damage, it is true, but the massacre was a direct result of the measles infestation of summer 1847. #WAHistory #BCHistory #ORHistory #Blogpost http://nancymargueriteanderson.com/waillatpu-massacre/

YORK FACTORY EXPRESS, BLOGPOST:
Here is how the incoming York Factory Express made their way down the Columbia River in the fall, making their way from Fort Colvile to Fort #Vancouver #WA This is, of course, the final leg of their long journey from York Factory to the Pacific Ocean -- and it was definitely not the easiest part of their journey, even though downriver. #HBCHistory #WAHistory #ORHistory #Blogpost http://nancymargueriteanderson.com/final-leg/

In 1849, Thomas Lowe made a journey up the Columbia River to Fort Nez Perces #WallaWalla, following the route the York Factory Express had taken, but a few months later. He would return to Fort #Vancouver #WA by another historic trail -- the but that is in a future post in this short series. #HBC #WAHistory #ORHistory #Books #AmWriting @Blogpost http://nancymargueriteanderson.com/up-the-Columbia/
