Turn left onto Tindle Creek Road and cross the creek. The grave is perhaps 1.5 miles north of Tindle Creek Road on private property. In September 1854 several children of Hezekiah Burford were playing in their father's wagon when they noticed a group of Indians approaching. Frightened, the children fled into the house. Two year-old William caught his head between the wagon wheel spokes and strangled. The professionally carved granite monument inscribed with a typical flying dove says "William R.-son of H. and L. Burfords, born 1852, died September 1854." The Burfords moved away a few years later. Located on the Hezekiah Burford D.L.C. #39, OC #2799.

  • Watershed Characteristics

    Watershed Characteristics

    SECTION 2 Watershed Characteristics This section describes drainage characteristics unique to the City of McMinnville and the watersheds that drain through the City. The following drainage characteristics are summarized: location, study area parameters, climate, soil conditions, topography, groundwater, existing drainage facilities, and existing and future land use conditions. This information will be used in the master plan to evaluate the performance of the existing drainage facilities and to identify future drainage requirements. 2.1 Location The City of McMinnville is located in Yamhill County, situated in the northern Willamette Valley between the Coastal and Cascade Mountain ranges. It is approximately 35 miles southwest of Portland and 26 miles northwest of Salem, Oregon. The City of McMinnville is mostly situated between the North and South Forks of the Yamhill River just upstream of their confluence. The Yamhill River flows northeastward from McMinnville approximately 7 miles before reaching the Willamette River. Four major waterways drain the City of McMinnville: Cozine Creek with its branches, Baker Creek, North Yamhill River, and the South Yamhill River. Figure 2-1, Topography Map, shows the location of these four major waterways. The area of the entire watershed that drains McMinnville and drains through the McMinnville urban growth boundary (UGB) is approximately 10,727 acres, 50 percent of which is drained by Cozine Creek. Cozine Creek, in turn, discharges into the South Fork of the Yamhill River. 2.2 Study Area Delineation While this master plan considers the runoff impact from the entire watershed that drains through the City, the specific study area for this plan is the McMinnville UGB.

  • Yamhill County Road Names

    Yamhill County Road Names

    Yamhill County Road Names By Dan Linscheid Dedication This booklet is dedicated to the memory of Ruth Stoller, first historian of the Yamhill County Historical Society. (October 26, 1915 – May 23, 1994) PREFACE In December 1983, the Yamhill County Rural Addressing Project Study Committee issued a proposal for a new addressing system for all rural residents. The then Yamhill County Commissioner, Dave Bishop, coordinated this effort. Many county roads, referred to only by number, required research and citizen input so that appropriate names could be assigned. This was ten years ago; so I thought people might be interested in the origins of the names in our county road system. In 1984, I was chosen to coordinate the road naming process working closely with the Yamhill County Historical Society in seeking roots and interesting tidbits about pioneers after which many of our roads are named. While the initially proposed names of many roads were derived from names of area pioneers, in many cases, appeals by affected property owners resulted in changes. The author has tried to give the reader some idea of the location of the road before describing its origins. Also included are anecdotal information or other historical data received during the naming process. When the County Courthouse in Lafayette burned down in January of 1857, all road records were lost. Some Road Supervisors were afraid to improve or maintain their roads for fear the roads had lost their legal status due to the fire. This explains the hundreds of road creation proceedings recorded within the first several years of Commissioner's Journals beginning in February of 1857.
