There isn’t much history that I’m able to find about Hamilton, Oregon. Oregon Geographic Names states that the town was named for J.H. Hamilton, a pioneer stockman who first settled here in 1874 and lived there until his death in 1909. It also mentioned that a lot of settlers visited the area to race horses.
Is this J.H. Hamilton’s house?
A homestead just past town. A few horses were in the Corral, but the house itself was obviously abandoned and disused.
