H.E. Burke (left) Entomological Assistant in charge of the Forest Insect Field Station, and Albert G. Angell, Agent. Yreka, California. Photo by: Unknown Date: October 1911 Credit: USDA Forest Service, Region 6, State and Private Forestry, Forest Health Protection. Source: H.E. Burke Collection digital files; Regional Office; Portland, Oregon. This photo and the following excerpt are from: H.E. Burke. 1946. My Recollections of the First Years in Forest Entomology. Berkeley, California. 37 p. <a href="https://www.fs.fed.us/sites/default/files/recollections-on-forest-entomology.pdf" rel="nofollow">www.fs.fed.us/sites/default/files/recollections-on-forest...</a> "Angell was employed by the Bureau for one year only. He was a cruiser with the Forest Service in the 1911 spring control work of the Northeastern Oregon Bark Beetle Project. Appointed as an Agent July 1, 1911, he spent most of the next year attached to the Yreka station. He was the Bureau representative on the Maffat Creek Control Project during the winter and spring of 1912 and during May and June was detailed to Baker to make a recruise of the northeastern Oregon control areas. He afterwards became a Ranger on the Whitman National Forest and made a name for himself by organizing a cattlemen's cooperative association that really cooperated. Later he was attached to the Supervisor's headquarters of the Whitman at Baker and then to the North Pacific Region headquarters at Portland where he had charge of the CCC work for the Forest Service. I believe that he died in Portland in 1943." Note: The current-day Angell Job Corps in Yachats, Oregon may be named for Albert G. Angell. This excerpt is from a 1990 piece by Norman L. Hesseldahl: <a href="http://www.conservationcorps.info/News_Item_-_1990_Camp_Angell__01.pdf" rel="nofollow">www.conservationcorps.info/News_Item_-_1990_Camp_Angell__...</a> "Angell Camp is presently a Job Corps center, but in 1933 when President Roosevelt and Congress created the Civilian Conservation Corps as part of the New Deal, the site was just a parcel of undeveloped forest land along the Oregon Coast. In fact it wasn't even part of the Siuslaw National Forest - the land was owned by a private timber company. ... In 1936, the camp at Cape Creek became a Resettlement Administration Camp, and was headquarters for a thousand men. The CCC activities were apparently transferred to "side camps", which were established in 1937. Seven side camps were set up. One of these was Camp Angell - named after either reprentative Homer Angell or Albert G. Angell, a long-time Forest Service employee."
