History & geography

History

C.C. Whitten, an official for the Northwestern Railway System, platted the town in 1880. Whitten was incorporated in 1882 with a population of 350. By 1914, Whitten was proud of its church membership of 170, its schools, three general stores, a blacksmith shop, restaurant, bank, produce house, implement store, and two doctors. In fact, Whitten was never without a doctor until 1973 when Dr. George Blaha died after serving the community for 60 years. In the early 20th century, the city experienced several devastating fires which destroyed much of the town. The city rebuilt very little. The Whitten Renagades semi-pro baseball team, managed by James Speas, played for over 2 decades with their final season in 1996.
