John L. Morrison (pioneer) John Lindsey Morrison (May 1819 – December 21, 1899) arrived in Oregon Country in 1842 along with other famous Oregon pioneers Medorem Crawford, Asa Lovejoy, and Sidney Moss, in the same wagon train. Morrison built the home of Francis Pettygrove in early Portland, Oregon, in 1846. The street on which Pettygrove's house was located was named in honor of Morrison. The first Morrison Street Bridge (built in 1887), crossing the Willamette River into East Portland, has been said to be named after Morrison, but alternatively it has been stated that the bridge simply took the name of the street that had been named for Morrison.

Parlour (ice cream) Parlour is a brand of frozen dessert currently produced by Nestlé. It is not to be confused with an ice cream parlour, which is any type of vendor selling ice cream. Parlour comes in many different flavours and is available mainly in Canada. Originally produced by Sealtest Ice Cream Parlor in the United States (and branded by Ault Foods) as an ice cream, it no longer meets the legal definition of ice cream due to a change in the recipe; the high content of palm oils (see Mellorine). Parlour now competes with bigger brands of ice cream such as: Chapman's, Breyers and others .

Kline's Dairy Bar Kline's Dairy Bar is a small ice cream shop with four locations in Virginia, United States. It was established in 1943 in downtown Harrisonburg in the Klines' family home. After the death of owner John Kline, it was bought out and expanded to three other locations. It uses an old fashioned way of production called continuous freeze instead of the newer and more popular soft serve method. This means that there is less air added into the ice cream as it freezes, making for a denser product more like old-fashioned frozen custard. Since this means of production takes more time, the shops only make three flavors a week. They update their customers on the flavors using their website and their Twitter account.
