Sherman County History and General Information
Established: Feb. 25, 1889
"County Quick Facts" (from U.S. Census Bureau)
County Map (from ODOT)
Sherman County, created in 1889 from the northeast corner of Wasco County, was named for Gen. William Tecumseh Sherman. It was separated from Wasco County as much for its unique geological setting as for the settlers’ desire to have their own political process. The rolling hills are bordered by the deep canyons of the John Day River to the east, the Columbia River to the north and the Deschutes River and Buck Hollow to the west and south.
