dc.description.abstract	"Thurston county was created on January 12, 1853, while Washington was still a part of Oregon Territory and was named in honor of Samuel R. Thurston, Oregon's first Delegate to congress. Elwood Evans wrote: 'At that session several new counties were established. The northern part of Lewis was set off. When reported the act contained the name of SImmons in honor of the pioneer settler, Michael Troutman Simmons in the Puget Sound basin; that name gave place to Thurston, a legislative tribute to the memory of the first delegate. History of the Pacific Northwest, Oregon and Washington, Vol. 1, Page 326 (Meany)."	en_US
