Centerville A Growing Rail Center of Oregon Territory

Centerville boasts a strategic rail junction linking Pendleton to Wallula and the Northern Pacific system. With fertile lands surrounding, the town has rapidly expanded since 1878, aided by the O R G & W T and steam lines. Hon. T. J. Kirk spearheaded large investments and civic upgrades, including a $7000 school and multiple brick stores. The community supports diverse businesses and two churches, while Pilot Rock nearby serves as a key regional hub with growing immigration and steady mail service.
