John L. Morrison (pioneer)
John Lindsey Morrison (18-- - 1899) arrived in Oregon Country in 1842 along with other famous Oregon pioneers Medorem Crawford,〔"Published Letter from C.S.L. Crawford of Seattle, WA to Judge I.J. Lichtenberg of Lopez, San Juan Co., WA dated January 3, 1900"; The San Juan Islander; Friday Harbor, Washington; January 18, 1900; Page 3, Column 2 .〕 Asa Lovejoy, and Sidney Moss in the same wagon train. Morrison built the home of Francis Pettygrove in early Portland, Oregon. The street on which Pettygrove's house was located was named in honor of Morrison. The Morrison Bridge, crossing the Willamette River into East Portland, would later be named after him as well.〔Snyder, Eugene E.. Portland Names and Neighborhoods: Their Historic Origin. Portland: Binford & Mort, 1979. p.182 .〕
Born in Scotland, Morrison emigrated to Connecticut around 1830 and learned carpentry. Coming to the Oregon Country in 1842, Morrison worked as a carpenter for the Methodist Mission in 1843 and later in Oregon City where he gained a reputation for being meticulous in his work. Morrison built several houses in the Portland area and Oregon City with the most famous surviving structure being the Barclay House in Oregon City. Morrison would move to the San Juan Islands in the 1850s where he lived until his death in 1902.〔
His obituary 〔The San Juan Islander; Friday Harbor, Washington; December 28, 1899; Page 3, Column 2〕 states that he was born in Pennsylvania to Scotch parents, but he was actually born in Ireland and immigrated to Pennsylvania,〔Fisher, Vera Welsh. Morrison Family History. cira 1936. p.2〕 moving to Oregon from there. He died on December 21, 1899 at his home near near Griswold, Shaw Island, San Juan County, Washington.〔 He is buried at Valley Cemetery, Friday Harbor, San Juan County, Washington.〔 His obituary states he was born in 1803, however cemetery information states a birth year of 1818.
