Tyee is the Chinook jargon
word for "chief," and the mountain near this small pastoral cemetery was
so named because of its important
position to its surroundings. The word comes from the Nootka
language. A Douglas County post
office was established in this vicinity on June 7, 1901, with Ewing D. Powell
serving as first postmaster. The office was located on Umpqua River, about
seven miles due south
of Kellogg. On May 31, 1939, the
Tyee office closed to Umpqua.
