Luzon

Comments

Luzon is between Carley and Sage, on the south side of Canoe Canyon on the north bank of the Columbia River. It was named for some good reason, the reason has been lost with time. The station was renamed on January 31, 1910 to Whitcomb in honor of G Henry Whitcomb. The Luzon post office operated from April 10, 1909 until January 31, 1910. The Whitcomb post office operated from January 31, 1910 until October 31, 1934. Benton County, Washington (S3, T5N, R24E)
