Alicel, Oregon

Alicel is an unincorporated community in the Sand Ridge area of the Grande Ronde Valley in Union County, Oregon, United States.[1] It is northeast of La Grande on Oregon Route 82.[2] It was a station on Union Pacific Railroad's Joseph branch, and in 1890 was named for Alice Ladd, wife of local resident Charles Ladd.[3] Alicel was platted in 1890,[4] and had a post office from 1890 until 1972.[3]

At the turn of the 20th century, Alicel had a general store, a school, and two warehouses.[5] In 1902, Alicel was described as having a "thriving community" of Mormons.[6] In 1940, Alicel had a population of 300.[7] The Peacock Lumber Company sawmill in Alicel closed in 1994.[8] It was slated to reopen in 1997, but was closed for good by 2000.[9][10]

An agricultural community, Alicel is the site of a Pendleton Grain Growers grain elevator,[11][12] which was the subject of a 1941 Minor White photograph.[13]
