MINING REVIVED NEAR LOG TOWN CEMETERY SITE, JACKSONVILLE.--
During the early mining days of southern Oregon it is said there were in the neighborhood of 100 mining cabins located near the spot where the Log Town cemetery is now located, between Jacksonville and Ruch. There have been no cabins standing for a number of years until within the past few months five new cabins have been erected and mining there is again going on, on a small scale.
John McKee gave two acres of his old homestead in the early sixties for the location of the Log Town cemetery. The first man buried in the cemetery, according to Anna Coffman, who now lives in Jacksonville, was her grandfather, James Dunlap, in 1862. Several who have relatives and friends buried there are very anxious to have a deed for this cemetery recorded and are now working with this aim in view.
