Oregon Sentinel
Appearance
The Oregon Sentinel was the first newspaper in southern Oregon, United States. It was published in Jacksonville, Oregon from 1855 to 1888.[1][2] It was founded by William G. T'Vault.[2] It was initially named the Table Rock Sentinel, changing its title in 1858.[3][4] It was a decidedly pro-slavery newspaper.[4][5]
The Jacksonville Sentinel, a distinct newspaper, was founded in 1902 and lasted until 1906.[6][7] It was the only Republican paper in southern Oregon at the time. It was edited by Joseph P. Gaston.[8]
In the 1980s, the Southern Oregon Historical Society revived the title once again for its own newsletter.[9]
