I have a 1915 postcard which I believe was taken at Kent Oregon. I believe a building in the background is the Kent Commerical Company and would like someone to possibly confirm this. You can see the photo at: www.irontrader.com/graphics/2040case.jpg Wonder if you have an email address so I can contact Ms Mills.

I enjoyed my visit, and I hope to be back for a third visit. Thanks for the update on Kent's statistics. Kent does have a lot of character and history, and I hope that somehow the old granary can be saved. It's such a historic building and a special part of Kent. I will be posting a gallery of more images from the Kent granary for all to enjoy. Thanks Elizabeth.

I am currently a resident as well as having grown up here. I had to laugh at the end of your first paragraph and could probably name the person that took down your plate number, lol. As of 2009 we have a population of 27 residents having 11 households. Our little town may not be much to look at from the Hwy, but as your pictures can attest to, we do have a lot of character. It breaks my heart that they will be tearing down the old wood grain elevator. I grew up riding horses and driving wheat truck past it. It stands proudly out my back yard picture window. It will truely change the landscape of Kent when it's gone. Thank you for posting your pictures and hope you come again! I enjoyed your article on Kent.
