W.R. Manefee, who came to Dufur in 1855, says a principal part of the valley land, or irrigable land was taken at that time (1855) and settlers were on the land. Probably about the first taken was the Henderson Donation Land Claim, 3 or 4 miles west of Dufur in the widest part of the valley. The place now (1904) belongs to Wm. Vanderpool. Mr. Menefee is the only survivor (1904) of those who came before or at the time he did. For several years he lived on a farm, not far from here and then moved in to town. For a time he engaged in the mercantile business. The growth of the town dates from 1888 when the school were started. This induced many farmers to buy lots and build houses, which a part or all the family would occupy during the school year which used to be 10 months. The town was incorporated during that period.
