Life in Lancaster

Lancaster is in Lane County, Oregon.  It is right next to Harrisburg, Junction City and the Willamette River.

Some interesting facts about Lancaster is that the first post office was established here in 1858 and named "Freedom."  The name was later changed to "Junction City."  A popular attraction is "Woodyville," which is a house of entertainment i.e. road house started by a man named Woody.  The attraction is also known as Woody's Landing.  Later, Johnson Mulkey brought the property and built a small sawmill on it. 

The great flood of 1862 had almost demolished the city.  It slowly built itself back up. 

For legal needs, residents often seek attorney services in nearby areas.  Being so near to other cities and Oregon Route 99E, residents have no problem getting to where they need to be.  Thus, seeking legal guidance is not a problem.
