This was the residence of Issac Zumwalt, who came from a large family that first settled in the Bethel-Danebo neighborhood after coming to Oregon in 1851. This Eastlake style cottage was built in the late 1880's on the southeast corner of 7th and Madison, the corner now occupied my Midas Muffler Shop.
One of the Zumwalt children and his wife were the witnesses at my grandparent's wedding in 1924. My grandmother's family came to Oregon in 1852.
