History of Whitmore

The first explorer in Whitmore was probably John Work. The Hudson's Bay Fur Company sent work in a party of explorers from Fort Vancouver on the Columbia River to explore what are now Washington, Oregon, and California. John Work's group of twenty-eight men, twenty-two women, forty-four children and six Indians left Fort Vancouver on August 17, 1832 and returned on October 31, 1833.

They traveled in the upper Sacramento Valley, then east to Goose Lake and down to the Pit River. The party continued down the Pit River to Hat Creek, where they camped. From there they reached the headwaters of Cow Creek, and followed the divide between Old Cow Creek and South Cow Creek. Part of their path was probably what is now Tamarack Road.
