This blog contains history, photos, etc. related to Idaho from the late 1800's/early 1900's. My mother, Brenda Steunenberg Richards, was born in ID. Much of it pertains to the assassination of my great grandfather, Gov. Frank Steunenberg, the trial of Bill Haywood & grew out of the 100 year commemorations of those events. Along the way I toss in a bit of the Wild West, old guns, radios, military, etc. Your comments are welcomed. If using my images, please just ASK. Thank you.

Portland Woman Celebrates 108 Years
Portland Woman Celebrates 108 Years. Loreen was the first wife of my great Uncle Frank W. Steunenberg, the youngest son of Governor Frank Steunenberg. Uncle Frank was about five years old at the time of the assassination of his father. The children of Frank W. and Loreen are Alice Steunenberg Willoughby of Portland, OR (I believe) and Beth Steunenberg Allen of Boise, ID. May we all make it to 108...or even a 100 would be good! There must be something to the vegan diet Loreen has followed all her life and that my 18 year old daughter strictly follows too. I eat pretty healthy but still need a little meat now and then.
