AREA HISTORY
The town of Ephrata, situated in Grant County, has a history deeply rooted in the development of the American West. The area where Ephrata now stands was historically inhabited by Native American tribes, primarily the Wanapum and Sinkiuse-Columbia bands of the Native American Plateau culture. These tribes thrived in the region for centuries, sustained by the abundant wildlife and the Columbia River.
Ephrata’s growth was spurred on by the construction of the Great Northern Railway in 1892, which connected the town to larger markets and accelerated economic development. By the early 20th century, Ephrata had become a bustling agricultural community specializing in wheat, potatoes, and other crops. Completing Grand Coulee Dam in 1942 provided additional irrigation and hydroelectric power, further bolstering the local economy.
Culturally, Ephrata is known for its small-town charm and community spirit. It boasts several historic buildings and landmarks, including the Grant County Courthouse, built in 1917, and remains a focal point of the town.
