Museum Of Odd History

You can learn about each of the pioneers featured in the mural, at the Museum of Odd History, located on the street level in the Historic Peninsula Odd Fellows building, 4834 N Lombard Street, Portland, OR.

To celebrate the 130 year anniversary of Peninsula Lodge #128 and the 100 year anniversary of our building, we will be installing this mural on the Jordan street side of our building. The mural features members of the Odd Fellows (both IOOF and GUOOF), The Rebekahs, and The Household of Ruth. Everyone featured had lasting impacts on the development of North Portland. Stay tuned for more information and how you can help.

North Portland Odd Fellows

This is my next book! I am working with the Museum Of Odd History and my co-author David Scheer. I became an Odd Fellow through my research on the town of Boring. I am excited to write about how the members of the various Portland lodges were involved in the development of North Portland.
