Last episode we told you about when Sara found that first Hidden brick from 1871 that kicked off this whole Brick Madness for us both.
This time we give you brief history lesson on the English Hudson's Bay Company and how bricks first arrived in Clark County to build Fort Vancouver, where the first Catholic Settlement to the area was located.
John McLoughlin, a French Canadian employee in charge of the Hudson's Bay Company at Fort Vancouver, wrote his friend Father Blanchet in Montreal, Canada asking for help for the new settlement. Turns out McLoughlin himself is also connected to both Andrea AND Sara's family... and still seen haunting Oregon City.
McLoughlin's letter to Canada brought an order of nuns to the area, led by new Superior Mother Joseph of the Sacred Heart. MoJo herself was the catalyst for the creation of the Hidden Brick Company, and she won't let us forget it. The Synchronicity web making up this story begins to weave itself together as we start lining out the long line of connections surrounding the Hudson's Bay Company.
