About Me
- JayCee
- I am James Christopher Smock. I arrived in Oregon at the age of four with the family Hall. We were eight in number. It was 1852. My wife Mary Ellen Sebastian and I platted the town of "Smockville" in 1889, which later became the Town of Sherwood.

Is there any racoons at the camp?
Just on people's heads. Lots of Daniel Boone's kinfolk live around here you know.
Why are there Civil war people going to be there?
Wall, I believe the Civil War troops are from the 64th Calvary out of Astoria. After a long winter of being holed up in Astoria, their feet get itchy and they take a tour around the country, evaluating the climate of the people during wartime. I've seen 'em on some of the old wagon roads going to Champoeg and Lafayette.They have a small, but lively marching band.
Will the chickens be there this year? I want some of the eggs. I like feeding the chiks.
The chicks are awfully cute when they've just hatched. but take it from me, you don't want to make pets of them. They grow up a few weeks after you bring them home from the hatchery, and then they're not so cute anymore. The worst part is when your mom chops off your pet's head so you can have chicken and dumplings for dinner. Yum!
It's all part of living on a farm.
do kids have fun?
