Plat map from the Whitman County city of Farmington. Scale 400'=1" In 1886, the Oregon and Washington Railway & Navigation Co. built track running from Portland into eastern Washington. The track ended at Farmington, named after Farmington, Minnesota, the hometown of plat filer George Washington Campbell Traux. Arriving there with a few other pioneers in the early 1870s, Traux took advantage of the availability of cheap land, and had a survey done of eighty acres for town plats. The town incorporated in 1888. While stock raising was the first economy in the area, wheat growers soon took over, and sent their goods to nearby Almota to be shipped off to market. Another local trade was found in forming shakes for roofs. These hand crafted items were made from local cedar. In the early days (1870s)search parties were often formed to look for children who had gotten lost in the bunchgrass on their way to school! However, by the 1890s the area was well on its way to development and a number of businesses could be found there, including a general store, blacksmith, livery stable, meat market, hotel, hardware, drugstore, creamery, brewery, flourmill, brick factory and even a planing mill. By the 1890s the population reached over 1,000. Yet this pace would not be maintained into the next decade. The population took a steady decline following the transfer of the railroad line to Tekoa, Washington in the early 1900s. Of historical note: a number of Chinese settlers also lived in Farmington. Two full blocks on Washington Street was considered to be a Chinatown district. Also during this time period, two fires changed look of the town's business sector. The first fire came in 1897. The second, in 1906, burned down the town hall where city records were kept.

Plat maps from the Whitman County cities of Colton, Staley and Diamond. Colton scale 400'=1" Staley scale 400'=1" Diamond scale 400'=1" The town of Colton, eleven miles south of Pullman, began as a settlement in 1879. Mr. Gregor Koshir filed the town plat in 1881 and it was incorporated the year following. There are a number of variances regarding the naming of the town. Some records say that it was named for Dr. J.A. Cole, the town's benefactor who helped obtain the post office and school in 1879 and 1889, respectively. Other reports say it was named through the joining of the names of two settlers: Cole and Worthington. Still another tale suggests that it was named by Dr. Cole, Ray Woodworth, and L.J. Wolford. These three supposedly took the "Col" of Cole and "ton" from Clinton--the son of L.J. Wolford. Early Colton had a large Catholic contingency. In 1892 the Benedictine Sisters arrived, establishing St. Andrews Convent and a school. They remained to teach until 1937, when the entire convent returned to their home base in Cottonwood, Idaho. In 1937, however, the Notre Dame Sisters arrived to continue the school. Staley, just five miles south of Pullman, was soon enveloped by the college town. Mr. and Mrs. Daniel Staley (some records report that it was David Staley), purposely platted the town in the hopes that its proximity to the Northern Pacific Railroad line would ensure its success. Nine miles west of Colfax on Rebel Flat, Mr. Q. Diamond platted a town and named it after himself circa 1886. The Columbia and Palouse Railroad (later sold to Union Pacific) ran through Rebel Flat. The town school, begun in the 1890s, consolidated with Colfax by 1938 and the post office closed in 1956.

In 1888-89, the Oregon Railway Extension Co. (which later became the Washington Division of Pleasant Valley Railroad Co.) came to the area soon to become Willada. The town's name is the combination of the first names of the railroad depot's agent (Will) and his wife (Ada). The post office for the town, however, was named after its first postmaster--Mr. James L. Lancaster. The town lay seven miles southeast of Evan (perhaps Ewan?) and three miles north of the Palouse River. The nearby school began as early as 1880. It was first known as Downing School, but soon changed its name to Lancaster Willada. It consolidated with St. John in 1943. The post office remained in operation until 1965.

Plat map from the Whitman County city of Palouse. Scale: 400'=1" The word Palouse stems from the name of native tribes in the area that were perhaps known as the Palus, Palost, Pallah, or Palusha people. When French trappers came to the region they called the area "Le Peleuse", or grassland country. The term now is used not only for the region, but a town and river as well. The town of Palouse lies on the south fork of the Palouse River. Modoc Smith and W.P. Breeding laid claims there in 1875, and the town (also known at that time as Palouse City) held a post office just two years later. By the 1890s, Palouse was a major trade area. The town also supported a healthy sawmill business and farming economy. The Northern Pacific Railroad arrived in 1888 and the town incorporated that same year.

That same year, Mr. Daniel Traux platted forty acres of land into a townsite and Tekoa incorporated in 1889. At first the community was known as Fork of the Creek (Hangman Creek), but Mr. Traux's wife looked out from her porch one day to find a sea of tents. It reminded her of a story in the Bible which told of Tekoa--a "city of tents" and suggested the town be named after it. Tekoa housed a roundhouse and main depot for the Northern Pacific Railroad and quickly grew with its support. However, it also had a more diversified economy than some of the other railroad towns, such as Malden, and was able to withstand the rail's decline in the 1980s. It remains a small town in Whitman County today. Subject The topic of the resource Whitman County (Wash.) -- Maps Tekoa -- Maps Connell, Frank P. Fork of the Creek Wash.

Alkali Flat Creek runs through the town as well. There were a number of shipyards located along the town's Water Street. With shipyards and the coming of the Oregon Railway and Navigation Co., Texas City became important for trade and transportation capabilities. With completion of the Snake River Valley Railroad in 1907, Texas City also had a direct route to the Idaho border.

The farming town of Colfax (located thirteen miles northwest of Pullman) was named in 1872 in honor of President Grant's Vice President, Mr. Schuyler Colfax, by one of the town's earliest settlers--Mr. J.A. Perkins. (Perkins' first name for the area, Belleville, was in honor of his girlfriend at the time. He changed the name when they were no longer together.) Colfax incorporated in 1879 and began as a cattle raising and logging/lumber town. Many people believed the land was not suitable for farming. This all changed by the 1880s, however, with the first crop of winter wheat. As the county seat for Whitman County, Colfax resented being overlooked for the site of Washington State's new land-grant college. This honor was bestowed upon the town of Pullman in 1892.

Plat map from the Whitman County cities of Rock Lake City and Lamont. Scale: 400'=1". The settlement at Rock Lake was platted on its southwest side in 1903 by Willis Anson Evans. Evans bought three acres of land, and in three years had encouraged the development of the town so well that it held a two story hotel (the Cliff House), a general store, lumber store, livery stable, post office, school and even a cruise boat business that toured the lake. The Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul ran its line on a trestle above town. However, in 1911 a lawyer for the railroad--Mr. Marshall K. Snell--bought land from the Ewan family living a few miles beyond and the entire town was moved there. Rock Lake City changed its name to Ewan just one year after this map was published. The town of Lamont is another town located near the eleven small lakes lying west of Rock Lake. It was named after a vice president of the Northern Pacific Railroad--Mr. Daniel Lamont. Other sources claim that the town is named after Thomas W. Lamont of Stanford Oil, but this has never been confirmed. The town began in 1907 and held a post office and was incorporated just one short year later. A new school was erected in 1910, but with the consolidation of the railroad lines and the transfer of a number of resident employees to other job locations, the school consolidated with Sprague in 1960.

Plat map from the Whitman County city of Penawawa. Scale: 600'=1". Named after a nearby creek at Union Flat, the town of Penawawa lay twelve miles west of Almota. Its first permanent settler, Mr. Ed Johnson, arrived in 1871 and raised cattle. In 1872, the territorial road running from Walla Walla to Colville stopped at the settlement and helped its economy greatly. It was platted in 1877 by founders Emsley Flincher, C.C. Cram and Francis Marion Byrd. Cram owned a ferry business on the other side of the Snake River and Penawawa grew as a ferry station and an exchange station that kept fresh horses for the stage coach route from Spokane to Pendleton. It was widely used until the highway was built and bypassed Penawawa for Central Ferry instead. There was also a railroad in the vicinity, located near Camas Prairie Road. The Penawawa post office was in existence from 1872 to 1937. Their school, which had begun sometime before 1890, consolidated with Colfax in 1940. The cemetery was also moved to Colfax (1960) due to the likelihood of water levels rising from construction (beginning 1963)of the Little Goose Dam.

Plat map from the Whitman County town of Pampa. T 15, N.R. 39E, Scale 400'=1". The Columbia and Palouse Railroad Company's line ran through the Pampa siding in 1883. The town grew large enough for a post office just one year later, but it only continued in operation until 1912. The post office, railroad station and general store all lay on Front Street, with the school on South and 3rd. By the time of this plat map, 1910, the Columbia and Palouse Railroad was replaced by(or perhaps incorporated into) the larger Oregon Railway and Navigation Company. Many hypotheses have been given regarding the origin of the Pampa name. Some suggest that it refers to the pampas-like grass of the region. Others guess that someone--perhaps David S. Bowman, a southerner who arrived in 1883--named the town in honor of Pampa, Texas or Pampa, Tennessee.

Mckenzie, and Mr. Charles Moore) arrived in the geographical area then known as "Three Forks". Once there, a number of settlers decided to stay and try their hands at farming, cattle grazing, mining, and the trade business. Stories have been passed down through the years that the town was named in honor of Mr. George Pullman of the Pullman Car Company, but these reports have yet to be verified. What is known is that at the time of the town's incorporation some two hundred souls resided there. A number of diverse businesses in the area helped the young town stay afloat, and even boast (and win) the argument that their town was the best location for the State's land-grant college. Some of the first businesses in the area included the Pullman Drug Store, owned by White and Johnson, Martin Zender's blacksmith shop, the Downen and Mills' Dry Goods Store, a real estate and insurance agency also owned by Mr. E.E. Downen, a Grocery store run by Ellsworth and Hunt, the "Mint" Saloon run by Mike Leitch, and the Palace Hotel and a livery stable run by Mr. M.C. True. The Columbia and Palouse Railway (later taken over by the Oregon-Washington Railroad and Navigation Company) came to town in 1885, and was joined shortly by the Spokane and Palouse Railroad (1887) and the greatest coup of all, the Northern Pacific Railroad in 1890.

See the other part of Pullman: http://kaga.wsulibs.wsu.edu/zoom/zoom.php?map=wsu170 Some speculation has arisen over the longstanding story regarding Pullman's inception and bestowed name. Prior to 1899 and the publishing of the first historical sketch of the town by resident Judge Thomas Neill, pioneer stories listed D.G. McKenzie as the first white man to settle in the area. After Neill's history, the notion crept into the historical record that it was in fact Mr. Bolin Farr who first settled and then platted ten acres for the townsite. Another discrepancy stated that Pullman was originally named "Three Forks", after the nearby junction of two creeks and with the Palouse River. However, Lawrence Stark, archivist of Manuscripts, Archives and Special Collections at Washington State University's Holland Library, suggests that this is merely the geographical name for the area on which the town of Pullman is situated, and not the original name of the actual town at all. He further disagrees with the likelihood that the town was named after Pullman Car Company President, George Pullman. Some facts regarding the early town are certain however, such as the its incorporation in 1888. The town lay originally on seven hills, with today's College Hill then known as "Mechanic's Hill" and Military Hill then known as "College Hill". The original College Hill Addition (1890)is the site of the first college to arrive in Pullman--a military school begun in 1891. Apparently, the military school was academically well regarded, and preferred even over the State land-grant school when it enrolled its first students in 1895. However, the military college burned down that same decade, and with the growing State College in such close proximity, it seemed pointless to rebuild. The name of "Military Hill" however, keeps the school in memory. Subject The topic of the resource Whitman County (Wash.) -- Maps Pullman Wash., Maps Farr, Bolin Mckenzie, D.G.

Belmont scale 600'=1" Hay scale 400'=1" Pine City scale 400'=1" A past director of the Northern Pacific Railroad, Mr. August Belmont, was given recognition when the town of Belmont, Washington was named after him in 1885. However, as with other Whitman County towns, other stories as to the name's origin have been suggested. Among these is the theory that Belmont means "beautiful mountain" and refers to the scenic view from there of Steptoe Butte. Another report said that there was a Belmont family that pioneered in the area. However it received its name, Belmont remained the NPRR rail terminus for only two years, when that distinction was pushed on to Lewiston, Idaho. Today it lies along the Burlington Northern line, and claims a few homes and a grain elevator. Hay, Washington's naming stories run along similar lines: apparently the siding (flag stop for the Oregon Railway & Navigation Railroad) was stocked with an abundance of much needed Hay during the blizzard of 1893. It became known as "Hay Station" and later, just Hay. The town itself did not expand greatly until the 1920s and 1930s, when many of its buildings were constructed. Pine City's beginnings was as a stage, not railroad station, of the Texas Ferry Road. The road ran from Walla Walla to Colville, and was originally an Indian road called "Texas Trail." Mr. Z.F. Dodson, an 1878 settler, platted the town in 1881. In just that first year, the town held a number of businesses, including a doctor's office, the Anderson-Edwards Four Mill, a number of general stores, a hotel, livery, blacksmith shop and a saloon. The Chicago Milwaukee and St. Paul Railroad came in 1905, and the mill was moved from its original site to make room for it.

Plat maps from the Whitman County cities of Endicott, Almota, Revere, Pandora, and Palisades. Endicott and Almota scale 400'=1" Revere, Pandora, and Palisades scale 800'=1" Of the five platted towns, only Endicott and Almota grew to any significance. In 1909 the Milwaukee Road, a part of the Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul Railroad, held an auction in Spokane for land at five locations along their tracks. Among them was Pandora. It lay eight miles north of Oakesdale, in the Pine Creek Valley. The C.M.S.P RR also named the town of Revere--located 30 miles northwest of Colfax--after Paul Revere. Some people already lived in the area prior to the coming of the C.M.P.S., and even a school was established in 1910. Much less information is available, however, for the C.M.P.S. flag stop known as Palisade. It lay on the northeast side of Rock Lake and so at times was even called "Rock Lake Station" instead. Endicott was founded in 1882 by the Oregon Land and Improvement Co., and was named for William Endicott, Jr., a shareholder in the company. Prior to this name settlers from the confederacy called the area "Rebel Flat". A number of German-Russians settled there during the years 1882-1907, buying land communally and splitting it among them. Almota, on the north side of the Snake River almost 40 miles above Clarkston, was early on used by Nez Perce Indians as a fishing site. "Allamotin", "Almotine", and even "Alto Motin" have been given as Nez Perce names for the area, meaning "torchlight" or "moonlight fishing". Almota, soon became the trading/shipping center for all of Inland Empire, but lost some of its business when rail lines arrived in Colfax in 1883. The Oregon, Washington and Idaho Railroad and the Snake River Valley Railroad would not arrive in Almota until 1907. Today it is located near Lake Bryan, the reservoir formed from the construction of the Little Goose Dam.

Plat maps from the Whitman County cities of Hooper, Chambers and La Crosse scale 400'=1" Chambers has been described as an "odd-shaped town", consisting of one to five block streets. The shortest street, Granite, ran along beside the Northern Pacific Railroad. The name Granite was at times given to the school district as well. (The school, begun on Drain Street in 1893, consolidated with Pullman in 1938). Chambers did not grow much and the post office--started in 1901--closed down just five years later. The small town of Hooper was named after early settler, Albert J. Hooper. However, he never owned land in the actual town, set up by the Oregon Railway and Navigation Co. He was honored by them because he had a good ranch nearby. The real founders of Hooper, the McGregor Brothers, came in 1888. They worked hard and eventually opened a store there in 1900 that remained in business for a long time after. Hooper lies on the east bank of the Palouse River. LaCrosse began as a post office station in 1892 and was at that time known as Dunlor. There are two stories regarding the naming of the town. The Oregon Railway & Navigation Co. built a line from Riparia to LaCrosse in 1888. One of its surveyors hailed from LaCrosse, Wisconsin and so named the town. Another story says that the town is named after its numerous cross streets. Whichever story is correct, in 1896, the Post Office name was changed to match the town. The town did not incorporate until 1917, but chose 1899 settler, Harding Shobe, as its first mayor. Shobe land is shown on the map.

Plat map from the Whitman County city of Steptoe. Scale 400'=1" The area now known as the town of Steptoe was called Steptoe Station at first. This is because the town began as a siding, or flag stop, for the railroad. Records show that as early as 1875 the area had a post office. By 1890 it had a school district known by the area's main benchland--Tennessee Flat. However, with the arrival of the track running from Spokane to Colfax, the name was changed and in 1907 the Railroad Land and Improvement Co. platted the area for a proper townsite. The town was named in recognition of Lieutenant Colonel Edward J. Steptoe, who had battled with local Native Americans at a butte near Rosalia in the 1850s. The town is located about 10 miles from Colfax. Subject The topic of the resource Washington--State Steptoe, Lt. Col. Edward J. Railroad Land and Improvement Co.

Plat maps from the Whitman County cities of St. John, and Winona scale 400'=1" At Pleasant Valley Creek, eighteen miles northwest of Colfax, the Oregon Railway and Navigation Co. platted and filed the town in 1888. The railway officials named the town for an early settler--Mr. Edward T. St. John. St. John donated much of the original town land, on the provision that the square block in the center of town would always be a park. In 1888-89, the Oregon Railway Extension Co. built a line running into St. John. This line later became a part of the Washington Division of the Pleasant Valley Branch, which in time was taken over by the Union Pacific. Not much is known of the early development of Winona, except that the Washington and Idaho Railroad, a subsidiary of the Oregon Railway and Navigation Co. began the Pleasant Valley line to travel from Winona to Seltice by way of Thornton. Winona was named after one of the surveyors' home town--Winona, Minnesota. As stated above, Union Pacific bought out the O.R.& N.Co.'s line, and by 1925 wanted to end the Pleasant Valley road. However, UPRR did not receive government approval of the termination until the early 1930s.

Plat maps from the Whitman County cities of Thornton and Elberton. Scale 400'=1" Elberton, named after Elbert, the deceased son of plat filer Sylvester M. Wait in 1886, began as the site of a mill. Located 12 miles northeast of Colfax, the Palouse River runs directly through the town. Manuscripts, Archives and Special Collections at WSU has the manuscript history of the town and one of it's earliest settlers, Mr. John Weber Leid. Sites shown on this map are discussed in Leid's manuscript, including the Oregon, Washington Railway and Navigation Depot (O.W.R.& N.) built in 1888, the post office, run by Mr. Joe McCoy, and the two room school house. The school, built in 1890, soon had an addition of two more rooms, but with the economic success that came with the railroad, the town grew so fast that a store was rented downtown for classrooms. Elberton's main economy was the saw mill, but there was also a flour mill, which is shown on this map. Another interesting business in town was the Oregon Evaporated Co. owned by W. Allen Newberry. Begun in 1902, the company owned the distinction of being the largest prune dehydrator in the world. Thornton, begun around the same time, was a stop on the "Pleasant Valley Line" of the Washington & Idaho Railroad, a subsidiary of the Oregon Railway & Navigation Co. The Pleasant Valley Line ran from Winona to Seltice--stopping in Thornton.

Plat map from the Whitman County city of Malden. Scale 400'=1" Located twenty miles north of Colfax, the town of Malden, Washington was named by the then Vice President of the Chicago, Milwaukee, and St. Paul Railway--Mr. H. R. Williams. When his company extended their rail to the Puget Sound, they chose the Malden area as a "division point". No town site had yet existed there, but it would soon become a stopping point for the "Milwaukee Road"'s change crew, their repair and stock shops, and administrative offices. Soon following the construction of the C.M. & P.S. Railway's station, freight depot, roundhouse, and switchyard in 1909, Malden town boasted of eighty buildings and a population of nearly 450. In 1910, the year of this plat map, the census showed 798 people and growing. However, Malden could never diversify its economy and when--due to technological advancements and a reduction in rail use in America--the C.M. & P.S. line closed their Puget Sound line in 1980, the town had already suffered a substantial decrease in population (around 200), and by then railroad families had moved on for work.

Scale ca. 1:7,000,000. Prime meridians: Greenwich and Washington. Inset: San Francisco and environs. A hand colored map including the Oregon Territory --comprising the area that would later split into Washington Territory in 1853. The map also includes the recently formed State of California. Its population boomed following the discovery of gold in 1848 and the rush of 49ers into the area the next year. Note also Utah Territory. Worried by the streaming mass of miners coming into the area in 1849, the Mormons invited Europeans interested in their faith(particularly from England) to come and populate Utah. This map is numbered 144 from Joseph Meyer's "Meyer's Hand Atlas", published by the Bibliographic Institution of Hildburghausen (Germany).
