History

Springfield was settled when Elias and Mary Briggs and their family arrived in 1848. They were among the first party to travel to the region via the “Southern Route” by Klamath Lake, over the Cascades, into the Rogue Valley, then north to the Willamette Valley. Elias Briggs along with William Stevens ran a ferry on the nearby Willamette River. The Willamette Valley The Willamette Valley The Willamette Valley is the region in northwest Oregon in the United States that surrounds the Willamette River as it proceeds northward from its emergence from mountains near Eugene to its confluence with the Columbia River. ... The Willamette River (pronounced wil-LAM-met) is a tributary of the Columbia River, approximately 240 mi (386 km) long, in northwestern Oregon in the United States. ...

According to donation land claim records, Stevens was the first settler to stake a claim in the Springfield locale, arriving in October of 1847. He commenced building a house with his three oldest sons, and when the house was completed in December, the rest of his family joined him on Christmas day that year.

Another early arrival in the Springfield vicinity was Captain Felix Scott, Sr. who settled between the McKenzie and Willamette rivers in 1847.

In 1854 Springfield School District No. 19 was formed. A small schoolhouse was built near the corner of south 7th and B streets; it served the community until the 1880s. Miss Agnes Stewart, a young woman from Pennsylvania, was the first teacher. She had arrived in Springfield via the Lost Wagon Train of 1853. The Elliott Cutoff was a wagon road that branched off the Oregon Trail at the Malheur River and continued west to the Willamette Valley in the U.S. state of Oregon. ...

The 1860 U.S census listed 399 people as living in Springfield.

In 1861 the worst flooding in recorded history of the Willamette River occurred.

In 1871 the main line of the Oregon and California Railroad bypassed Springfield for Eugene. The story goes that a group of prominent Eugene businessmen paid railroad financier, Ben Holladay, $40,000 to bypass Springfield by crossing the Willamette River near Harrisburg instead of Springfield. Thus began a rivalry that lasts up to the present day. The Oregon and California Railroad was formed from the Oregon Central Rail Road when it was the first to operate a 20 mile stretch south of Portland in 1869. ... Holladays lions at the entrance to the Corcoran Gallery of Art Ophir Hall now called Reid Hall at Manhattanville College Benjamin Ben Holladay (October 14, 1819-July 8, 1887) was known as the Stagecoach King until his routes were taken over by Wells Fargo in 1866. ... Harrisburg is a city in Linn County, Oregon. ...

Springfield was incorporated as a city in 1885. Albert Walker, a blacksmith in town, was Springfield's first mayor.

Because of their closeness, the two cities tend to complement each other: Eugene has the University of Oregon, Springfield a number of lumber mills; Eugene is more liberal, Springfield more conservative; Eugene tends to be upper middle class, whereas Springfield is blue collar. The University of Oregon is a public university located in Eugene, Oregon. ... Vacations to destinations such as Hawaii, shown above, may be seen as a hallmark of the Upper-middle class. ... A blue-collar worker is a working class employee who performs manual or technical labor, such as in a factory or in technical maintenance trades, in contrast to a white-collar worker, who does non-manual work generally at a desk. ...

For years, the economy of Springfield has hinged on the lumber industry, with the largest employer being Weyerhaeuser Company. Weyerhaeuser opened its Springfield complex in 1949, and after years of aggressive logging was forced to downsize as old growth lumber became less available. In the 90's, the Weyerhaeuser sawmill and veneer (plywood) plants closed, and the paper plant was downsized. Springfield has now developed a more diversified economy, and the largest employer may soon prove to be Peace Health, which is in the process of moving their hospital (Sacred Heart Medical Center), and laboratory (Oregon Medical Laboratories) from Eugene to Springfield. Weyerhaeuser is one of the largest pulp and paper companies in the world; the worlds largest private owner of softwood timberland; and the second largest owner in the United States, behind International Paper. ...

Author Ken Kesey moved to Springfield at a young age, and graduated from Springfield High School before moving on to the nearby University of Oregon. After some years of wandering (described in The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test by Tom Wolfe), Ken bought a farm in nearby Pleasant Hill and remained a prominent local celebrity until his death in 2001. Ken's brother Chuck, and Chuck's wife Sue started the Springfield Creamery in 1960, and the business survives today based partly on sales of their flagship product, Nancy's Yogurt, developed from recipes of Nancy Hamren. In the 70's, the Creamery staved off bankruptcy with the help of the Grateful Dead, who ultimately held a series of 10 benefit concerts on behalf of the creamery. Kenneth Elton Kesey (September 17, 1935 – November 10, 2001) was an American author, best known for his novel, One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest, and as a counter-cultural figure who, some consider, was a link between the beat generation of the 1950s and the hippies of the 1960s. ... The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test is a literary journalism novel written by Tom Wolfe early in his career in 1968. ... Grateful Dead was an American rock band formed in 1965 in San Francisco, California. ...

The city of Springfield is surrounded by filbert (hazelnut) orchards. The production has declined over time as fields have been developed into housing, however the town used to sponsor an annual Filbert Festival in early August as a general summer celebration, featuring music, food, and family fun. Actual harvesting of filberts occurs in October. 98% of American filbert production is harvested in the Willamette Valley. [1]

With the current influx of the Hispanic populous, Springfield's downtown is seeing an increase in Latino storefronts while traditional downtown stores are in decline. Currently, the city government of Springfield has encouraged this influx of Latino businesses.^{[citation needed]}
