It was named after Major William M. Ormsby, one of the original settlers of Carson City, killed along with seventy- five other white men in 1860, in an unsuccessful attempt to subdue a perceived uprising of Paiute Indians near Pyramid Lake, Nevada, which was at the time part of Utah Territory.
The county's population dwindled significantly after the gold rush days.
By the late 1940s, it was little more than Carson City and a few surrounding hamlets to the west.

The required constitutional amendment was passed in 1968.
On April 1, 1969, Ormsby County and Carson City officially merged as the Consolidated Municipality of Carson City.
