<Colette, Could she have meant OTTY ROAD? It is located in Clackamas County
near <what is now Clackamas Town Center Mall. It would travel between 82nd
and 92nd?
<Anne, I am almost sure she was living in the Portland area. The back says
the pictures <are from Sandy's Nu-Prints, Portland, Oregon.
Clackamas County obtained its current boundaries in 1854. Multnomah County
and the city of Portland are just a few blocks North of Otty Road, see:

You might try searching or finding a volunteer to search the Clackamas County
census for your family and looking also for the nearby Lion's (Farm) Family
mentioned on your postcard:
http://arcweb.sos.state.or.us/county/cpclack/cpclackcensus.html
or check the County Records of maps showing roads and railroads:
http://arcweb.sos.state.or.us/county/cpclack/cpclackmap.html
You might also contact the Museum of the Oregon Territory library (located in
Oregon City) to see if they have any records of the nearby "Lion's Farm" or
the "Estacada railroad lines" mentioned on your postcard :

Best wishes on your search,
Anne
<Would anyone know if this street or road still exists, or if it has a
<different name.
<I have a postcard from a gr. aunt and she sent the postcard (1940's
<or1950's) to her brother and on the back she wrote:
<I live between 82 and 92 Ave on Olly (Ally) Road. Do you remember where
<the Standard Oil Stations are on 82st near the Estacada Railroad tracks. I
<live 1 mile South on 82 and 4 blocks on Olly Road right in front of the
<Lion's farm.
