[3] A gravel road called Antone Lane runs south of and roughly parallel to Route 26, to which it connects both east of Mitchell, in Wheeler County, and west of Dayville, in Grant County.

The road crosses Rock Creek, a tributary of the John Day River, at Antone.

[3] The location was named in the early 1890s for Antone Francisco, a pioneer settler of Portuguese descent.

[1] Antone was the site of a U.S. Army barracks built to protect miners and other travelers after Chief Paulina's Northern Paiute warriors killed several soldiers in this vicinity in 1864.
