Allegany, Oregon
Allegany Oregon 97407
Allegheny is the modem spelling of a Delaware word for the Allegheny and Ohio rivers. This form is used for many features in the United States, including the Allegheny Mountains in the eastern United States and for a county, city, and river in Pennsylvania, while the spelling Allegany is used for a number of features in the state of New York. This post office was established March 25, 1893, with William Vincamp first postmaster. The compiler has been unable to learn why the spelling Allegany was selected rather than the form Allegheny.
