I don't think anyone has yet mentioned "Central" Cemetery, just off 
highway 20, east of Albany.  I think it is sometimes called Central 
Christian and sometimes Santiam Central.  It seems likely that "Center 
Precinct", and/or a populated place by that name may have been located 
about there.

Type in "Central" in the feature name, State - Oregon,  County - Linn,  
hit "send querry" and you will get a list of several possibilities.  The 
most likely may be Central (historical) populated place.   Click on that 
one and then choose "Tiger Map Server" to get the map.
