Do you know of Seaton ???

This page is an orphan - a placeholder until we can discover more about Seaton. When we encounter a name that is new to us, we add it to our Gazetteer with the hope that we'll discover more information in the future. Such is the case with Seaton.<1>

Our sources for Seaton (see Mentions and References below) indicate that it was a community with a post office by the same name. Unfortunately our sources aren't clear about the location of Seaton other than they indicate that Seaton would be found somewhere in Lane County, Oregon.

From the Blevins / Hellbock List: The post office opened  in 1885 and closed  in 1896.
