History of Vancouver
For thousands of years, the Vancouver area was home to native people
who flourished on the bounty of forest and river.
In May, 1792, American trader/sailor Robert Gray became the first
non-native to enter the fabled “Great River of the West,”
the Columbia River. Later that year, British Lt. William Broughton,
serving under Capt. George Vancouver, explored 100 miles upriver.
Along the way, he named a point of land along the shore in honor of
his commander. In 1806, American explorers Meriwether Lewis
and
William Clark camped near the Vancouver waterfront on the return leg
of their famed western expedition. Lewis characterized
the area as
“the only desired situation for settlement west of the Rocky
Mountains.” In 1825, Dr. John McLoughlin decided to move
the
northwest headquarters
of the Hudson’s Bay Company from Astoria to a more favorable setting
upriver.
He named the site after Point Vancouver on Broughton’s original map.
Fort Vancouver was thus born.
For many years, Fort Vancouver was the center of all fur trading in
the Pacific Northwest. It was also a center of British dominion
over
the Oregon Territory.
In 1846, American control was extended north to the 49th parallel.
The northwest became part of the
United States.
In 1849, American troops arrived to establish Columbia (later
Vancouver) Barracks. It served as military headquarters
for much of
the Pacific Northwest.
The neighboring settlement was named “the City of Columbia.”
Finally, in 1857, the City of Vancouver was incorporated. Through
the rest of the century, Vancouver steadily developed.
In 1908, the first rail line east through the Washington side of the
Columbia River Gorge reached Vancouver. In 1910, a railroad
bridge
was opened
south across the Columbia. In 1917, the Interstate Bridge was
completed.
During World War I, the site later named Pearson Field was the
location of the world's largest spruce cut-up mill.
It cut raw timber into the lumber used to build the planes which
helped win the war in Europe. During World War II, Vancouver’s
Kaiser Shipyard
built a variety of craft that contributed greatly to America’s war
effort.
Today, Vancouver is a community proud of its past with a keen eye
toward a future rich with promise.

Are you moving or
relocating to Vancouver Washington or currently living in Clark County
WA?
One of the biggest complaints born out of the depressed housing market
in the northwest is spiders.
Spider season is also approaching. Almost all "Homes for sale" inventory
in the housing market has been sitting
vacant sometimes for years. Going through your new home locating
spiders, spider eggs & webs has become something to consider.
