About Colton, Oregon
Colton is an unincorporated community located in Clackamas County, Oregon, United States, on Oregon Route 211. Colton is located between the cities of Estacada and Molalla.
Colton was named in about 1892 by two residents, Joshua Gorbett and a man named Cole, who each wanted to name the community after the other. The Post Office Department thought "Gorbett" would be confused with Corbett, so the community was named "Colton" instead. The Colton post office was established the same year.
Camp Colton, Colton Luthern Church, Colton Market, Bob & Clyde’s, Colton Cafe, Fir Valley, and our volunteer Colton Fire Station are everlasting Colton landmarks.
Colton areas include the communities/neighborhoods of: Old Colton, Elwood, Cedardale, Highland, Clarks, Dickey Prairie, and Fernwood. These areas are primarily where original schools, granges or stores were once located. Some of the original structures remain. In Elwood the school house is now the community center and the old Church is still open for business, along with the Elwoid cemetery.
