Old Main WWU The original buildings on the WWU
campus predate the founding of “The Normal School” founded or refounded by Phoebe
Judson of Lynden WA by decades. Phoebe agreed to continue to dismantle
the French city and Palace that Marie Antoinette and or her immediate descendants
occupied till they were driven out of. The city she made in its destruction
is Lynden WA, but before it was a British area (Lynden; a grove of Lemon
Trees, a nickname to
British Sailors “Lime’s” by the English Navy so their sailors
would stave off scurvy.) which the French under violent exile conditions
needed to be rescued from. Part of the British and French Royal family
libraries became the base of the library Phoebe used to found WWU. The core of that Palace became “the Hovander
Estate” with its Steam Engine. |
