|a Elkanah and Mary Richardson Walker, pioneer missionaries, were sent by the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions to the Oregon Mission. The Walkers and one other couple, Cushing and Myra Eells, established the mission at Tshimakain in 1838, to work with the Spokane Indians. Mary was born and educated in Maine, and married Elkanah because the Board wanted to send married couples. The Board closed the mission in 1848 after the Whitmans were killed. The Walkers eventually settled near what is now Forest Grove, Oregon. Elkanah pastored a church, and was also instrumental in starting the Tualatin Academy in Forest Grove, which later became Pacific University. Mary died in 1897 in Forest Grove, having survived her husband by twenty years.
