[or-roots] Louisville, Oregon

[Ray Powell]

There is a spot on Arlie Road that runs between Hwy 99 and Hwy 223 in Polk 
County, OR that is identified as Lewisville. It is about 3/4 mile north of a 
junction identified as Maple Grove. As the crow flies, it is in a southwest 
of Monmouth, OR. If you can use map coordinates, just let me know. My map 
program can generate latitude and longitude as well.
