The Mythical State of Jefferson

A small group of us had a BLAST on a frosty cold and snowy February Day in early 2011 when we were involved with a little TV special. Yep, a few of us local State of Jefferson residents managed to get on TV!! We were featured on the History Channel's show "How the States got their Shapes." Our Episode is called "Culture Clash." Our local residents appear on this video about 5 minutes into the 10 minute video clip. It was Loads of Fun! Click on the link above to watch the Video Clip!

PS: OUR map of The State of Jefferson includes many more Northern California and Southern Oregon counties than the show depicted! See our Maps TAB at left.
