History

The plat was recorded on June 28, 1900 by the Iowa and Minnesota Town Site Company. Aredale is a city in Butler County, Iowa County, Iowa, United States. In 1953, a train wreck destroyed the town depot, and no new one was forthcoming. The area surrounding the town had seen increasing settlement since the 1860s, and in 1890, the local dairy farmers pooled their resources to create a cheese making factory, which eventually helped the town develop enough to warrant the community its own post office and thus township rights. June 28th later was observed as Field Day by residents, and featured a town celebration and a baseball game visited by hundreds of people from nearby towns.
