Dan, Parrish Gap, the road is near Turner. If you bring a map up of Jefferson, enlarge it so you can see detail, and go to the north side of town you will find Jefferson-Marion Road to the east. a few miles down that road Parrish Gap comes in from the north. It is a rural two lane road--probably carried more traffic before I-5 freeway went in, but it twists and turns through farm country. It's in Marion County. No website--nothing famous about it. "Oregon Geographic Names" by McArthur, the Oregon "Bible" of information on places, only gives it two sentences: "This gap is in the hills about a mile northeast of Marion, It was named after E.E. Parrish on whose donation land claim the gap is situated." It is just a lower place with hills on both sides. These hills rise up from what has been relatively flat land from the south.

I see lots of mentions about Parrish Gap rd and other mentions about Benton CO, If the rd is near Turner, which rd is about the Gap and is there a website just on that fact?
I did Google - too many mentions, nothing looked specific as the story about that subject.
