Tillamook County
Founded: December 15, 1853 Named for Tillamook people County Seat:
Tillamook
Tillamook County, the twelfth county in Oregon to be organized, was
established on December 15, 1853, when the Territorial Legislature approved
an act to create the new county out of an area previously included in
Clatsop, Yamhill and Polk Counties. The county was named after the
Tillamook Indians who occupied the areas around the Tillamook and Nehalem
Bays.
Tillamook County is located in the northwestern portion of the
state and is bordered by Clatsop County on the north, Washington and
Yamhill Counties on the east, Polk and Lincoln Counties on the south, and
by the Pacific Ocean on the west. Boundary changes were enacted with
Clatsop County (1855, 1870, and 1893), Lincoln County (1893), Washington
County (1893, 1898), and Yamhill County (1887). The area of Tillamook
County is 1,125 square miles. [Oregon
