Settlers named the area "Strong's Battle Ground" after the US Army commander near Ft. Vancouver. Settlers expected a fight between the Army and the Klickitat Indians at that place in 1855, but the battle never occurred; but the name stayed. As time went by, the name "Strong" was dropped, and just "Battle Ground" was used.
