The original photos were scanned at much higher
resolution than you will see here, and were decreased in size due to image load times. If
you would like a copy of the full sized image, email yamhillhistory@onlinemac.com so
arrangements can be made.
Notes:
- Surveyor & Crew photo taken in the 1880's. Jeff Fenton

1892: the plant was moved to Willamina in the early 1900's, and was kept in the family

Amity, Hopewell areas.
