About The Author

June A. Reynolds

June (Weisenback) Reynolds came to Chehalem Mountain in 1962 and started Sherwood School in 5th grade. She is a 4th generation Oregonian and her children are 5th generation. She was a librarian and teacher for 40 years and even taught U.S. History because she was a living history re-enactor! As a child, she never learned any Sherwood History and so in 2001, she started writing a history book about the area and helped with the new Historical Society. This is her story of World War II from her parent’s viewpoint and that of the Sherwood Community members of the 1940s.
