Klamath County History and General Information
Established: Oct. 17, 1882
"County Quick Facts" (from U.S. Census Bureau)
County Map (from ODOT)
The Klamath or “Clamitte” tribe of Indians, for which Klamath County was named, has had a presence for 10,000 years. White settlement began in 1846 along the Applegate Immigrant Trail, which precipitated clashes between the two cultures and led to the Modoc Indian War of 1872. The Oregon Legislature created Klamath County by dividing Lake County in 1882. Linkville was named county seat and its name was changed to Klamath Falls in 1893.
