City History
|
Robin’s Nest is the
name Robert Moore gave to the town he built in 1840. He
purchased the land from the Wallamut Indians and built a
cabin, flour and lumber mills, and places for his
worker’s to live. In 1845, he changed the name to Linn
City after his friend Dr. Lewis Linn the U.S. senator
from Missouri.
Moore dies in 1857 and shortly after there was a fire
burnt down the sawmill, gistmill, and even a ship that
was docked. Business men built back some of the city but
then a year later floods destroyed their work. In 1868,
the Willamette Transportation Locks Co. started
operation and they are still in operation today. In
1913, West Linn was incorporated |
