[or-roots] Re: Wilhoit Hot Springs

[Leslie Chapman]

It seems some f my Or-roots stuff is going into limbo again, I didn't get
the question this was an answer to.

I can explain the explanation at the bottom if you need it, keep in mind I
do this stuff for a living and may not be able to explain it any better than
they do however, I also sheould be able to send you a link to a topo map and
or aerial photo of these locations if you are interested Mimi, all this is
available online, the first "please refer to BLM Serial Number"   is for the
patent above it, the sencond one for the patent below it, here's John's
patent stuff from BLM below original message;

The springs were south of Molalla, Oregon  I believe on Wilhoit Rd.
I can dig into this next week for you.

According to Oregon Geographic Names by Lewis A. McArthur: Wilhoit,
Clackamas County. John Wilhoit took up a land claim at the present location
of Wilhoit post office about 1866. There were attractive mineral springs in
the vicinity and Wilhoit took up the property on that account and operated a
health and pleasure resort. The post office was established in 1882 and
closed on September 29, 1928.
