History
Established in 1840.
One of Oregon’s early settlers was William Moore. In the mid 1840’s, he along with his wife and six children traveled from Pennsylvania to settle in Oregon.
His home, which is now the front portion of the Inn, was constructed of brick, and consisted of four large rooms with a central staircase. This architectural style has become known as Greek Revival. In 1848 Mr. Moore opened and operated a grocery store, later he established the first hotel for our city. According to the 1850 census Mr. Moore is listed as an Innkeeper and on the front page of Oregon’s first newspaper published in 1851, the Inn is listed as «Moore’s Hotel».
It was during this early period that Abraham Lincoln played an important part in Northern Illinois history. Lincoln traveled and spent time here before becoming President. It was during the mid 1850’s that Mr. Lincoln visited the «Moore Hotel» for lunch and lodging.
