Copy of a portrait of Victor Emmanuel Emmel, from Schools, Oregon, who graduated from Pacific University in 1903 and went on to study at Brown University. After graduating with a Ph. D. in 1906 he taught 'Histology and Embryology' at Washington University in St. Louis, Missouri. There is a newspaper article about him pasted to the back of the photograph.
Copy of a portrait of Alanson Hinman Sr., who lived from 1822-1908; or possibly of his son, Alanson Hinman Jr., who lived from 1859-1932. Alanson Hinman Sr. was an early Oregon missionary and a trustee of Pacific University.
The subject of this portrait appears to be in his teens and is wearing clothes typical of the 1840s, which may make it more likely to be Alanson Hinman Sr. However, the elder Hinman was already 22 years old in 1844 when he emigrated to Oregon. It is possible, but not very probable, that he was able to have a daguerreotype portrait made in the early 1840s when he was in his late teens. (Because this scan is of a copy, the format of the original photograph, i.e. daguerreotype, tintype, albumen print, etc., is unknown.)
This therefore may depict his son "Lant" Hinman circa 1860-1870, or it may be another unidentified youth connected to the Hinman family.
The Christ Church in Wayside (Newberg), Maryland is still standing today. This church is linked to Tabitha Brown, who helped found the Tualatin Academy which became Pacific University. Brown's husband Reverend Clark Brown is buried on the church grounds. The back of the photo reads, Rev. Clark Brown and Rev. Benjamin Contee are buried beneath the floor and beside the altar, but we do not know which is which. I placed the two hymnals on the floor. If Clark Brown rests on the left, his head would be about under the nearer book. His head is toward the west.
