DUFUR REAL ESTATE
Dufur, OR
Dufur, Oregon. Emigrants
choosing the Barlow Road route around Mount Hood traveled south from
The Dalles to Dufur on Fremont's Trail to California. Then called
Fifteen Mile Creek, Dufur provided both good water and good camping.
Dufur's main street is the Barlow Road. There is a historical marker
on Fifteen Mile Creek, as well as Oregon Trail exhibits at the Dufur
Historical Museum.
In 1872, Andrew and Burnham Dufur bought a farm where Dufur is now
situated. The two men were members of a Wasco County pioneer family
that came from New England in 1859.
