词条 | Macleay, Oregon |
释义 |
This locale was originally named "Stipp" for local settler John L. Stipp, whose land claim was just west of present-day Macleay.[2] Stipp donated the land for what is now known as the Stipp Memorial Cemetery.[2] Stipp post office was established in 1880, and the name changed to "Macleay" in 1882.[2] Donald Macleay was a prominent merchant of Portland, and along with fellow Scot William Reid, was one of the investors in the narrow-gauge Oregonian Railway Company, which was built through the area.[2][3] Macleay gave money to build a schoolhouse in the Stipp area, near the new railroad station, so the post office was renamed in his honor.[2] Macleay was platted in 1884.[4] Macleay post office ran until 1939.[2] Ownership of the railroad line passed on to Southern Pacific and today it is owned by Union Pacific.[5] The Macleay Country Store has been in operation since 1916.[3] The community also has an active Grange hall, a fire station,[6] and the former school currently serves as a church.{{Citation needed|date=January 2010}} See alsoFor more on Donald Macleay:
