Upcoming Events
Historian/Genealogist Mel Bashore will focus on seamen who died on the ship Rosecrans in 1913. That ship foundered on Peacock Spit, just below Cape Disappointment. 29 of the 34 seamen aboard the ship were killed. The presentation will include visuals and research on some of those who were lost. He will weave in his genealogical research to flesh out their lives and identities.
