About Independence, OR

Independence was founded by pioneers who migrated from Independence, Missouri. [ citation needed ] Elvin A. Thorp arrived in the Independence area in 1845 and staked a claim north of Ash Creek in June of that year. He platted a small townsite that later became known as "Thorp's Town of Independence" or the "Original Town of Independence", now known as "Old Town". Thorp named the town for his hometown Independence, Missouri, and in honor of Andrew Jackson's characteristic of "Independence".
