.Jefferson County is located in the southwestern part of the great state of Montana. Established on February 2, 1865, it was named after the third president of the United States, Thomas Jefferson. The county has a rich history influenced by native tribes, fur traders, and European settlers. It encompasses 1,659 square miles and its population has grown to over 11,000 residents.
Before European settlers arrived, the area was home to the Salish, Shoshone, and Bannock indigenous tribes. During the early 19th century, fur traders, trappers, and gold prospectors began to explore Jefferson County. The year 1862 marked the discovery of gold in this region, leading to a rapid influx of settlers and miners seeking their fortunes.
Numerous mining operations developed, including those at Bannack and Virginia City. As the gold rush continued, Jefferson County's economy diversified, thanks to advancements in transportation, forestry, and agriculture. The arrival of the Montana, Wyoming, and Southern Railroad in the late 19th century also contributed to the area's growth.
