Salem
​
The city of Salem was founded in 1842 along the Willamette River at the former site of a Calapooya Indian village. The site was "rediscovered" by a Methodist missionary group led by Jason Lee. The group originated from New England, having migrated their way along the Oregon Trail in search of new land.
The site of the Calapooya Indian village, named Chemeketa, was chosen owing to its close proximity to the Willamette River. The name Chemeketa means "place of rest." The site is graced by glorious views of the surrounding area.
