Verboort, Oregon

Verboort is an unincorporated community in Washington County, Oregon, United States. It is located about two miles northeast of Forest Grove, a mile west of Oregon Route 47 in the Tualatin Valley. The community is part of the Forest Grove Rural Fire Protection District.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= County Bridges & Fire District Boundaries. )
==History==
Verboort was named for early settler Father William Verboort in 1876. Verboort post office was established in 1893 and ran intermittently until 1919.〔
The community was founded by six Dutch Catholic families.〔 The group was led by John Verboort, who had traveled from the Netherlands with his family and first settled in Wisconsin.〔 In 1875, the group, unhappy with the soil and weather in Wisconsin, bought 550 acres of land in the Verboort area and shared a large house.〔 Father William Verboort, son of John, joined family later that year.〔 Father Verboort and the community built St. Francis Xavier Church, and an informal school was founded at the same time.〔 In 1883, a new church was built and named Our Lady of the Visitation, while the old church was converted into a schoolhouse.〔 The Sisters of St. Mary of Oregon established a convent in Verboort in 1891, and by longstanding tradition, local families provide the sisters with produce.〔 In 1922, the school at Verboort and the Sisters of St. Mary who taught there were affected by the Oregon Compulsory Education Act, which was later overturned by the United States Supreme Court.〔 The current Visitation Church building, with 150-foot sequoias on either side, was constructed in 1959. The sequoias were planted in 1888 by John Porter, who brought the seeds back to Oregon from California after returning from the California Gold Rush of 1849.〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= The 76th Annual Verboort Sausage & Kraut Dinner )
The church at Verboort established successful missions in Hillsboro, Cornelius, Forest Grove, and Roy (another Dutch Catholic community), which all became self-supporting parishes.
