Lost Legacy in Talent, OR

Old House in Talent is Gone
        Once known as the Knighten House in Talent, this house was actually built by Fred Inlow about 1893-1895. Inlow's got the property from John Holton in 1885. 



       The house was a landmark and can be seen in the distance in many photos of Talent.  It stood along what we now call Talent Ave. next to the Friends church (where the church parking lot is now) and was torn down in the 1980s.
