D. Spreckels Company and the town was later owned by Southern Pacific.[4][5] By 1896, Beaver Hill was an important community in the area and on January 11, it incorporated as a city.[4] In 1926, 15 of the city's 16 remaining voters chose to disincorporate.[4] Today there is nothing left at the site.[2] The community had a branch off the Coos Bay Line of the Southern Pacific Railroad, but it never had a post office by the name Beaver Hill.[6] The post office at this locale was named Preuss; it ran from 1917 to 1924.[6] It was named for a local teacher, Rosa Preuss.[6] It is possible the name "Beaver Hill" for a post office would not have been approved because of the similarity to Beaverton and Beavercreek.[6] See also
