The Oregon Territorial Legislature created Island County on January 6, 1853. It was created from Thurston County. Amendments were introduced to change the name to Atchinson, Calhoun, or Webster, but the amendments were defeated. The county is located in the east central portion of Puget Sound and consists of primarily of Whidbey and Camano Islands. All records are in English. These records are open for research. Filmed and indexed by Washington State Archives, Northwest Regional Branch staff and volunteers. |
