Before the town even existed the Umatilla Indian Agency (for the Cayuse, Umatilla, and Walla Walla tribes) was established on the west side of the river in 1851. However during the Yakima Indian War of 1855 Indians destroyed it. The Oregon Mounted Volunteers built a stockade on the site, called Fort Henrietta. It was abandoned in 1856, and all that remains of the old fort is the blockhouse that you can visit at Fort Henrietta Park.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/farm9.staticflickr.com\/8019\/7311908818_ea9b103856_c.jpg\" alt=\"Welcome to Echo\" width=\"800\" height=\"454\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/farm8.staticflickr.com\/7079\/7311909114_6efe7a4fe0_c.jpg\" alt=\"Echo main street\" width=\"800\" height=\"531\" \/><br \/>\nMain Street<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/farm9.staticflickr.com\/8027\/7311908960_7389561030_c.jpg\" alt=\"Teel Building\" width=\"800\" height=\"531\" \/><br \/>\nTeel Building<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/farm9.staticflickr.com\/8024\/7311908890_e14088a138_c.jpg\" alt=\"H&amp;P Cafe\" width=\"800\" height=\"531\" \/><br \/>\nH&amp;P Cafe<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/farm8.staticflickr.com\/7237\/7311909046_500fe19684_c.jpg\" alt=\"Post office\" width=\"800\" height=\"531\" \/><br \/>\nPost Office<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/farm8.staticflickr.com\/7078\/7311909500_6599755906_c.jpg\" alt=\"Blockhouse\" width=\"531\" height=\"800\" \/><br \/>\nBlockhouse from Fort Henrietta<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/c1.staticflickr.com\/8\/7235\/7311909968_e4ed6994e2_c.jpg\" alt=\"Echo Methodist Church\" width=\"800\" height=\"531\" \/><br \/>\nEcho Methodist Church<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/c7.staticflickr.com\/8\/7220\/7311910038_8cbca96dc3_c.jpg\" alt=\"Ross House\" width=\"800\" height=\"531\" \/><br \/>\nThe Ross House, built in 1910<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/place\/Echo,+OR+97826\/@45.7426864,-119.1995279,16z\/data=!3m1!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0x54a2c6840d5dc02b:0xba6da41eb56fcb52!8m2!3d45.7423537!4d-119.195567\">Map of Echo<\/a><\/p>\n<p><em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.peachylife.net\/blog\/oregontownsproject\/\" target=\"_self\">Oregon Towns Project<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Date of visit: May 27, 2012 Population: 699 (2010 Census) The town of Echo sits on the east side of<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/cherylhill.net\/blog\/2016\/10\/18\/echo\/\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading<span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Echo<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[66],"tags":[138],"class_list":["post-1786","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-oregontowns","tag-oregontowns"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/cherylhill.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1786","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/cherylhill.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/cherylhill.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/cherylhill.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/cherylhill.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1786"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"http:\/\/cherylhill.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1786\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1930,"href":"http:\/\/cherylhill.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1786\/revisions\/1930"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/cherylhill.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1786"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/cherylhill.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1786"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/cherylhill.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1786"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
