Map of first brick buildings in Moscow, 1982
Scope and Contents
This collection includes similar images in three formats: mounted prints originally in binders, slides, and negatives. The collection contains copied images of historical photos, newspaper clippings, and articles taken by Clifford Ott, as well as original photographs also taken by Ott. The slides make up selected copy photos of the prints, including the annotations and descriptions as provided by Ott. Original photographer and date, if known, is included with the descriptions.
Item identification numbers for the prints include the original book number created by Ott, followed by the item number in order as found. Slide numbers follow the same system. The negative identification numbers are the date that Ott made a copy or took the image, followed by the image number. If an exact match of a negative and print could be found, the print is listed in the inventory with the corresponding negative number in the item description. The prints make up the Ott Historical Photograph Digital Collection.
Some negatives from Hodgin's Drug Store originally found in the 1992 donation now make up PG 91.

Extent
1 item : Map: first brick buildings erected in Moscow. On back: The names and dates of the first brick buildings built in Moscow were researched by Lillian (Woodworth) Otness in 1982 and [are] believed to be reasonably correct. Lillian is the granddaughter of Almon Asbury Lieuallen and daughter of Lilly [Lillie] (Lieuallen) Woodworth. William Neff homesteaded the northwest 160 acres of Moscow in 1871 from Main Street west and Sixth Street north. In 1875 A.A. Lieuallen purchased the Neff property and put up a small store building at the southwest corner of First and Main streets. This was the location of the first post office in Moscow when it was moved from [its original location named] Paradise Valley. Lieuallen built the large house still standing on Almon Street at the west end of First Street in 1884. Streets west of Jackson were named after the Lieuallen family, Almon, Asbury, Lilly [spelling of street name is correct] and Lieuallen.
