Willamette Name Origins Questioned by Himes
Oregon Historical Society’s George Himes responds to a Oregon Daily Journal letter criticizing D C Ireland’s Lucklamute origin claim. He argues Lucklamute dates to 1550 and details Preston’s 1850 map, cites Craigs and Buah editing history, and contends Willamette derives from Willamth meaning green water with strong Indian roots.
