Welcome to the Odyssey Phone Book, a place to find the information you need to communicate with the good ol' folks in Odyssey! You'll find people by their first names, not their last names. Information has been taken from Family Portraits #1, 3, 9, and Odyssey #715-716.
HISTORY OF ODYSSEY:
Odyssey's not named after the epic Greek poem by Homer. Around 1887, the townspeople got together to get themselves a name. When it came to Doc McAlister, he said it should have something to do with where the town is. "It's in a beautiful valley, a place everyone oughta-see." And so it was.
