MRS. MYRTLE FENDALL, WHO RECENTLY OBSERVED 92ND
BIRTHDAY, RECALLS EARLY DAYS
Myrtle Fendall celebrated her 92nd birthday at her home on Willamina Creek.
Friends and relatives who honored her included her brother and wife, Mr. and Mrs. Rex Osborn Burgess of Newberg and children, Mr. and Mrs. Eldon Fendall, Mr. and Mrs. Harley Mishler of Willamina, Mr. and Mrs. Ferral Fendall of Portland, and Mr. and Mrs. John Carlich of Tillamook. Others present were Mr. and Mrs. Fred Mishler and Edith Shandy of Willamina, Mr. and Mrs. Ronald Johnston, Mr. and Mrs. Alf Lady of Sheridan, and other close friends and neighbors.
Mrs. Fendall was born March 14, 1880 on Mill Creek near Sheridan. The daughter of Charles and Sarah Burgess. She had two brothers and three sisters, two of whom are living, both younger. A brother Rex Burgess lives in Newberg and a sister, Love Brocha, lives in Portland.
Schooling started at Bethal, just across the road from their home. Mrs. Fendall reminisced that they would run to school at the sound of the bell. Professor Frank Mulkey was the teacher for the upper grades, his wife for the lower grades. The children sat two to a seat with the boys on one side of the room and the girls on the other. The teachers joined in their games of ante over, domino, black man, run sheep run, baseball, horse shoes, hop scotch, fox and geese and drop the hankie. The family moved to Amity for a short while where she attended Amity School. Her classmate, Laura Judy, still lives in Amity. After her parents moved back to Sheridan, she attended Mill Creek School. Girl friends there were the Blanchard girls, McGee girls, Fanny Gully and Ona Potter. The girls enjoyed making their own rag dolls together. After eighth grade graduation there were five or six graduates, she attended the fall term at Oregon Agriculture College at Corvallis no OSU. It was thee equivalent of our present ninth grade.
Evenings were spent visiting neighbors, eating apples, popping corn and playing games. Myrtle's father was a real estate agent. Selling land those days was considerably different, in that the prospective customer stayed with the agent till he found the land he was looking for. Sometimes, it was several weeks. Mrs. Burgess made the family clothes from readymade cloth which she got for 10 cents a yard. Sundays, the family attended Sunday School and church. Afterwards, the time was spent visiting or playing games. Very little work was done and none of the stores stayed open on Sundays.
Stores in Sheridan at that time were George Bibee's dry goods, Canees drug store, Savage Hotel, Hendricks grocery and Bewely Livery Stable. These stores were all destroyed by a fire that swept Sheridan.
On November 18, 1903, she was united in marriage to Guy Fendall of Willamina. They lived for a time near the present Otto Heider home west of Sheridan. Mr. Fendall delivered the mail by horseback for Rt. 2, Sheridan, over the hill to Buck Hollow and up the Willamina Creek, reaching Willamina a little after noon. The rainy season made the roads almost impassable at times. He had the job for four years at $60 a month, a good wage then. Mrs. Fendall boarded 10 men who were building the railroad bridge west of Sheridan. The bridge is still in use today. The men were charged a $1.00 a day for room and board. Mrs. Kate Johnston worked for her at $3.00 a week. Mrs. Johnston passed away in Willamina last year. After the completion of the bridge, one of the men escorted her across the new bridge and she thus became the first woman to cross it. She recalls it was a scary experience.
In 1910, the Fendalls moved to Fendall homestead on Willamina Creek where they have resided ever since. Five children were born: Ferral G. living in Portland; Eldon F. owner and farming the family farm; Ruth Mishler, living on a part of the Original Fendall Donation Claim; and Ruby Fendall Carlich, living in Tillamook. A daughter, Helen, passed away at the age of 10 years. Mr. Fendall worked with the first county agent S. T. White. He died in 1955.
Electricity came up Willamina Creek as a result of a letter written by Mrs. Fendall to the electric company. Neighbors were Mr. and Mrs. Phil Booth, Mr. and Mrs. Hermon Miller and the Charles Blanchards.
The children attended Fendall School. The land had been donated by the Great-Grandfather, Charles Fendall. They had five grandmothers which included 3 great grandmothers. Four generations of Fendall children have attended the Fendall School. At one time there were only Fendall children attending the school, children of three brothers, Philip, George and Riley. Riley, being Guy's father.
Mrs. Fendall has been a charter member of Fendall Extension and has only missed a few meetings. ( March 1972- Sheridan Sun.)
