Yoder, Oregon
Yoder, Oregon is an unincorporated community in Clackamas County, Oregon, United States. The name "Yoder" comes from the Mennonites who settled in the area. The community is best known as a filming location for Nowhere Man (TV series).[1] Yoder is located on South Kropf Road, just north of South Schneider Road and about one mile south of Highway 211, where Kropf Road and 211 form Hamrick's Corner. Canby is to the north and Marquam is to the south. The Yoder Mill, a sawmill, was built in 1889. It has burned down three times and each time was rebuilt. The Yoder Store, an old-style general store, was built in 1914. The Yoder School was a small wooden school that was built in 1923 and used until 1963. The former Willamette Valley and Southern Railroad ran through Yoder, linking Oregon City and Mount Angel.[2]
