Oretown, Oregon : ウィキペディア英語版 | Oretown, Oregon Oretown is an unincorporated community in Tillamook County, Oregon, United States. It is located on U.S. Route 101 about four miles north of Neskowin. In 1877, settlers James B. Upton and S. H. Rock petitioned Senator John H. Mitchell asking for a mail route to Grand Ronde and a post office. Upton owned a seal marked "Oregon City", so he suggested the new post office be named "Ore City" and he would alter the seal so it could be used for the new community.〔 Mitchell knew confusion with Oregon City would occur, and suggested the name "Oretown" to the postal authorities instead.〔 The name was accepted and Oretown post office ran from 1877 to 1954.〔 Today Oretown has a Cloverdale mailing address.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= Oretown Bible Church )〕 At one time Oretown had a cheese factory and a salmon cannery. Today the community has a historic church, the 1913 Oretown Bible Church, a Grange hall built in 1907, and a few houses.〔〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= Oretown Bible Church )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= Oretown Grange Hall )〕 ==References==
