Cove, Oregon is home to the Ascension School Camp and Conference Center. For an excellent history of Cove, check out this website, here. Next weekend, Bishop Michael Curry will be leading "Revive Us Again!" an Adult Education Camp at Cove. I will be in town working on the archives, and hope to see you there.
Here is a shot of Cove, Oregon, c. 1890. Someone has identified Mt. Fanny in the distance. The name "Mabel Eaton McClain", and "Photo No. 11" is written on the back. The photo was taken and/or produced by Martin M. Hazeltine. Martin and his brother George operated a daguerreotype studio in San Francisco in the 1850s. Martin Hazeltine travelled extensively, photographing scenes throughout the Pacific Northwest. In 1885, he opened a studio in Baker City, Oregon, named "Hazeltine's Excelsior Studios". This is likely where Mabel McClain purchased a copy of the print. Can you identify any historic houses or landmarks in the photo?
