The Territory of Washington was an organized incorporated territory of the United States that existed from February 8, 1853, until November 11, 1889, when the final extent of the territory was admitted to the Union as the State of Washington.
The Washington Territory was created from the portion of the
Oregon Territory north of the lower Columbia River and north of the 46th parallel east of the Columbia; that had been ceded by Britain in the 1846 Oregon Treaty as settlement of the Oregon Boundary Dispute. A group of prominent settlers from the Cowlitz and Puget Sound regions met on November 25, 1852, the "Monticello Convention", to draft a petition to the United States Congress calling for a separate territory north of the Columbia River.
Three months later the United States Congress formed Columbia Territory, which was later known as Washington Territory. A first draft of the bill named the area "Columbia Territory," but the name honoring George Washington was proposed by Congressman Richard H. Stanton of Kentucky. The territorial capital was Olympia, near Fort Nisqually and the territory's first governor was Isaac Stevens.
The original boundaries of the territory included all of the
present day State of Washington, as well as northern Idaho and Montana west of the continental divide. Upon the admission of the State of Oregon to the union in 1859, the eastern portions of the Oregon Territory, including southern Idaho, portions of Wyoming west of the continental divide (then Nebraska Territory), and a small portion of present-day Ravalli County, Montana were annexed to the Washington Territory.
