Description
A view that a family picked many years ago to homestead in the Emmett Valley, which is a little distance from Emmett, Idaho.
Originally called "Emmettville," it was primarily a post office named after Emmett Cahalan, the son of Tom Cahalan, an early settler of the area. The post office was later moved but retained the name. A few years later the "ville" was dropped and the post office and town became simply Emmett. In 1883 James Wardwell had the town platted, and in 1900.
The town was incorporated as Emmett. Later, in March 1902, the Idaho Northern railroad came to the valley.
