Biographical History

Dr. John Coe Kellogg was born the son of Chester Curtis and Mary (Coe) Kellogg on Oct. 11, 1820 in Starkley, N.Y. The family moved to Ohio in the early 1830's. When Mr. Kellogg became a young man, he worked on a government sailing vessel for several years. When he returned, the free land in Michigan lured him there. John C. Kellogg married Caroline Phoebe Terry in 1847. John C. Kellogg went to medical school after his marriage and practiced medicine in Michigan for a few years. Prior to 1852, Grove Terry, Mrs. Kellogg's brother had moved to Oregon. His letters inspired the family to make the journey across the Plains to settle there also. In 1852 Dr. Kellogg and the family went to Oregon Territory. The party included: J.C. Kellogg and his wife, Carol Phoebe with their two daughters, Florence and Alma; Chloe Ann Terry, Mrs. Kellogg's youngest sister; Charles Townsend Terry, Mrs. Kellogg's youngest brother, and Eliza Terry, Grover Terry's wife, and their daughter Maria. Unfortunately, Eliza Terry and their daughter, Maria, didn't survive the journey to Oregon. They passed away while crossing the Plains in 1852. After arriving in Oregon, Dr. Kellogg went up to the Olympia, WA area to locate a claim. Later in the spring, the family came up by boat to the area. On the passage voyage Chloe Terry met Mr. R. L. Doyle, a widower, and his daughters. Upon arrival in Olympia, WA, Mr. Doyle and Miss Terry were united in marriage and continued to his homestead on Whidbey Island, WA. The Kelloggs settled in the Olympia, WA area for about year. After visiting her sister and friends, the Kelloggs sold their homestead in Olympia, WA and moved in the spring of 1854. They settled at South Bay, Whidbey Island, WA where Dr. Kellogg became known as the "Canoe Doctor". They were one of the pioneer families that became prominent in the area. Mrs. Kellogg passed away on Jan. 9, 1891. Dr. Kellogg passed away on Aug. 31, 1902.
