History is Our Story

“Our Story,” the bimonthly magazine of the Ferndale Museum, features stories and interviews about the history of the Eel River Valley, personalities, special events, old recipes, and an abundance of photographs from the late 19th Century to the present.

Coming up in the January/February 2011 issue of “Our Story,” is the history of Ballew Ford, a remembrance of the Ferndale founding of the Camp Fire Girls, “The Case of the Purloined Pastry” from the police blotter of the Ferndale Enterprise (1898) – and “Dear Fern” answers the question about “original Ferndale settlers” and the Native Americans. Plus a splendid Valentine’s Day greeting from the Island School, and more. Don’t miss it! Join now!
