Sherman County, situated in the north-central part of Oregon, was created on February 25, 1889, and encompasses approximately 831 square miles. The county is named after General William Tecumseh Sherman, a famous American Civil War General, who was admired for his significant contributions to the Union's cause. Its county seat is the city of Moro.
Prior to European settlement, the region was inhabited by indigenous tribes, such as the Wasco and Paiute peoples, who lived along the rivers and relied on fishing, hunting, and gathering for their subsistence.
In the early 19th century, settlers began arriving in the area, attracted by the fertile lands and the prospect of the Oregon Trail. The pioneers established farms, cultivated wheat, and raised cattle. Thanks to its location along the Columbia River, Sherman County became an important transportation hub, with steamboats and eventually railroads connecting the county to the larger cities in Oregon.
One fun fact about Sherman County is that it is home to the Sherman County Historical Museum, which contains an impressive collection of over 15,000 artifacts that showcase the history and culture of the region.
