DOLLAR FAMILY

Drive about 10 miles north and east of Vancouver, WA and you will come to a spot in the road named "Dollar's Corner." The area, with the actual corner located at NE 219th street and NE 72 avenue in Clark County, was so named because Smith L. DOLLAR started the first business there around 1924. It was there where he built the first commercial building and operated a gas pump and a small grocery. After the war he was a real estate broker until his death in 1953. Smith married Ruth COOPER about 1905 and had nine children. Many of the descendants still live around the area
