- The Schillestad Family: Sketches of Salmon Bay Life (historylink.org)
Alfred Schillestad (1869-1942), son of Seattle pioneer Ole Schillestad (1833-1914), left a unique visual record of early life along the shores of Salmon Bay in the sketchbooks he created as young man. Two of Alfred Schillestad’s sketchbooks form part of the Michael Cirelli Collection on Northwest Photography at the Museum of History & Industry (MOHAI), which also includes photographs related to the Schillestad family and a research file on the Schillestads. Together these materials construct an impression of the life of one of the first Norwegian immigrant families to arrive in Seattle. This account of the Schillestad family and their archives was written by Jody Hendrickson, archives assistant at MOHAI.
