Abstract

This thesis presents an approach to the study of the population distribution for a county through the use of an historical atlas. Prior to the compilation of the atlas, suggestions for sources of information and background data necessary to understand why changes took place were examined. The historical atlas of population distribution used Kittitas County, Washington, for the period from 1890 to 1970 as an example.

Recommendations emphasized further study of factors which have affected population distribution.
