Official Website

Goshen County was created in 1911. Its government was organized in 1913. The county was apparently named for Goshen Hole, a valley in the southwest part of the county. John C. Frémont camped in that area on July 14, 1843, and recorded that name in his journal, during an expedition on the Oregon Trail. Goshen county is known as the Gateway to the west and was on the Oregon, Mormon and California Trails.
