Wingville is an unincorporated community in Baker County, Oregon, United States.[1] Wingville lies at the intersection of Wingville Lane and Old Wingville Road northwest of Baker City and northeast of Pocahontas.[2]
The community's name stemmed from a derisive term for former soldiers of the Confederate States Army who had served during the American Civil War under Sterling Price, a major general, and who later emigrated to Oregon. Sometimes collectively referred to as a wing of Price's army, a group of them settled in Baker County after the war.[3]
Wingville had a post office from June 23, 1871, through July 1879. John R. McLain was the first postmaster.[3]
