Cornelius Holgate Hanford (April 21, 1849--March 2, 1926) was an American judge and the first United States Judge for the District of Washington. In 1875 Judge Hanford was appointed United States Commissioner, and held that office until the following year, when he was elected to the Territorial Council. Serving one term, he declined to be a candidate for re-election, and gave his undivided time to his profession. In 1882 he was elected City Attorney of Seattle, and again elected in 1884-'85. From 1881 to 1886 he held the office of Assistant United States Attorney In March 1889, Judge Hanford was appointed Chief Justice of Washington Territory by President Benjamin Harrison, and held that office until the admission of the Territory to Statehood, when his office lapsed; but he was at once honored with the appointment by the President to the office of United States Judge for the District of Washington. The former agricultural community of Hanford, Washington was named for him
