Is??? I grew up in Baker City and NEVER heard of Haynesville anywhere
in Powder River valley (there isn't the valley by that name either.
It's Baker Valley, Thief Valley, Bowen Valley, but sure not
Powder River Valley - the only time it was used was prior to 1881.)
You must meant Haines.
Dick Haynes of Haines Oregon but nothing to do with the town's name
which was named after Judge I. Haines
There is Haynesville in Klamath County in Goodlow Mountain region, in
Langell Valley, southeast of Bonzana, west of Big Adobe Reservoir
