545 0 |a In 1910, a group of African Americans formed a development company called the Deer Lake Project and purchased 140 acres north of Spokane in Stevens County. They operated orchards and grew vegetables. At least 45 stockholders from Spokane to Chicago invested $18,000 in the project. Two of the principals were Peter Barrow, Jr., and his brother Charles Barrow. They were sons of Peter Barrow, Sr., who founded the Cavalry Baptist Church in Spokane. The company only lasted a few years because of financial difficulties.
