Curtis is an unincorporated community in Washington.[1] It is located less than 3-miles north of Boistfort and is south of Washington State Route 6. The South Fork Chehalis River flows thru the town.

History

A post office has been in operation since 1901 inside the Curtis General Store. Benjamin L. Curtis, the first postmaster of the area, built the store and gave the community his name.[2][3]

At its founding, the town's economy was based on logging and farming,[4] particularly hops. The Klaber Hop Fields (Farm) once existed in Curtis, overlapping with the communities of Boistfort and Klaber. Recorded at 360 acres (150 ha), it was the largest hops field in the world for a time.[5]

Arts and culture

Historic buildings and sites

Curtis is home to two listings on the National Register of Historic Places, the Boistfort High School and the Wolfenbarger Site.[6] A railroad covered bridge existed in Curtis but was removed in 1975 in favor of a steel girder crossing.[7]

Education

The community once had a two-room schoolhouse.[4] Curtis students are now served by the Boistfort School District and the Boistfort Consolidated School.[8]

Human rights movement in the Soviet Union

In 1965 a human rights movement emerged in the USSR. Those actively involved did not share a single set of beliefs. Many wanted a variety of civil rights — freedom of expression, of religious belief, of national self-determination. To some it was crucial to provide a truthful record of what was happening in the country, not the heavily censored version provided in official media outlets. Others still were reform Communists who thought it possible to change the Soviet system for the better. ...
