I am having the same problem with words "ON", "OR" and "IN",
standing for, Ontario, Oregon and Indiana. I have created my own
Analyzer and remove the stop word "on", "or" and "in" and I have
the same results.
Is there another place in the code that is using those stop words ?
Anybody with the same problem ?

The StandardAnalyzer uses a small list of english stop words. These are
common word, which will be ignored, e.g. "no" or "a". Checkout
org.apache.lucene.analysis.standard.StandardAnalyser for the full list.
You have to write your own analyzer. This is very easy: Copy the code from
StandardAnalyzer to your own class and remove the StopFilter or change
the list of Stopwords. Don't forget to rebuild your index after this.
