[or-roots] Where is Center, Linn Co., Oregon in 1930

[Barbara Wulf]

At least one family [Safley, Jesse] that was in Center, Linn, Oregon in 1930 was in West Halsey Precinct, Linn, Oregon on the 1920 census.  [Central Linn High School is just out of Halsey]

        Hi Bob,

        Thanks!  ancestry may be wrong on this, they are a some times.
         U.S. Census > 1930 United States Federal Census > Oregon > Linn > Center > District 13
        It could be Central, Linn Co., OR. Yes, that helps a lot, I will search under that name.

        I'm researching this also because this could be where my g-grandfather William Lydall (born 1867 in Michigan) may be buried there as he lived there in the 1930 census & the Archie Fred Lydall I found in todays Obit. was William's son & brother to my Grandma.

        Thanks! Nancy

        Nancy:  The "Oregon Geographic Names" has no Center, Linn Co. Oregon. However, there is  a Central, Linn Co. Oregon. Listed. It was one of the first post offices in what is now Linn, Co.  it was established June 13, 1852, Joel Ketchum was postmaster.  It was discontinued April 19, 1861. Early maps show the place about nine miles east of Albany and a little south.
        Hope this helps you.

              Hi,

              I just today found my grandmother's brother: Archie Fred Lydall in today's Obits (neat!) & who was born in Wallowa, Oregon, So then I knew he had to be my Lydall family. So I kept on doing my research & I have found him in the 1930 census records as living in Center, Linn Co., Oregon in 1930. 
              My question is... does any one know where Center is located in Linn Co.?

              Thanks! Nancy
