The article states that Brownlee dam/reservoir started to fill on May 9, 1958. That is incorrect. An article in the La Grande Observer (La Grande, Oregon) dated 28 February 1958 describes the filling and inundation of the townsite of Robinette, OR on the evening of February 27, 1958 with the water level rising about 1 foot per hour. The article is entitled, "Brownlee Dam Sounds the Death Knell of Western Village." You can find this article at Newspapers.com (subscription required) by searching Robinette, Oregon, 1958. I can also provide it to you if I could figure out how to upload it using your less-than-friendly interface.
