ABOUT US The 2015 article in Bellingham Herald's "Living Magazine" by Dean Kahn tells our story best.  | Fairhaven area given fresh new history website by Dean Kahn THE BELLINGHAM HERLAD AUGUST 16, 2015 |  |  |
It might not be fate that brought Gayle Helgoe and Neelie Nelson together to create a website about Fairhaven history, but it seems that way. Of the two, Helgoe is more deeply rooted in the community. A reference librarian, she retired a decade ago as Bellingham Public Library’s assistant director after 34 years there. Nelson, a retired office manager, moved to Bellingham from California eight years ago with her husband, Steve. Soon after, Nelson and Helgoe met while walking in South Hill neighborhood near the 123-year-old Gamwell House. They chatted about the history of the neighborhood and went on their way. | | Neelie Nelson, left and Gayle Helgoe, seated at the J.J.
