submitted to the Oregon Historical Society.  They are: “Before Portland: an introduction to the Indigenous People of the Portland Basin,” “Epidemics among Portland Basin Native Peoples, 1781 to 1834,” “A Timeline for the Indigenous Peoples of the Portland Basin, 1446-1856,” and “Chief Kiesno.”  Most of the data presented in the essays has been cribbed from my Before Portland manuscript.
