History
Considered the oldest mining town in Washington state, Liberty's history dates back to 1867 when a small amount of gold was first discovered in the area by Newton and Benton Goodwin. The brothers initially moved on and spent some time prospecting in nearby areas before returning in 1873. This time, they struck it rich, and word of their find quickly spread, leading to a mini gold rush in the area. By 1876, many miners who had rushed to the Liberty area had left for gold rushes in other states, but numerous local families that had homesteaded in the area decided to stay on.
