Tigardville General Store & Post Office

Charles F. Tigard, his wife Rosa, and daughter Grace stand at the entrance to the Tigardville General Store & Post Office. A dog lies at their feet. To their right, a man sits on a stack of boxes in front of a large window. To the left of the Tigard family, two men sit on a wood bench in front of a large window. To the left of the window is a sign reading "Tigardville Post Office--Portland 10 1/2 m." To the left of the store is a large tree that stands in front of Charles Tigard's home. The Tigardville Post Office was established in 1886. Charles F. Tigard owned and operated both the post office and the store, formerly located on the northeast corner of what is now SW McDonald Street and Pacific Highway.
