Details
Located in a central Barlow County, Creed Conn Lake forms the headwaters of Goose Creek. A number of vacation homes surround the lake, including one rented by Lauren Talbot for a forensic anthropology team tasked with moving the graves from the Hensley Asylum cemetery to Bluebunch Glen Memory Garden.
The lake is named for John Creed Conn, a Silver Lake, Oregon merchant whose 1904 murder was originally attributed to a local Sheepshooters Association. Subsequent research by Lake County historian Melany Tupper suggests the murder was in fact committed by school teacher (and convicted forger) Ray Van Buren Jackson.
