History
The Sioux Indians were here until 1853 when they signed the Treaty of Traverse Des Sioux, and the Treaty of Mendota, which made the territory available for settlement. They would build a shack for him to stay in and he would patrol the land and would likely shoot any person coming in to jump a claim. They hunted deer, bear, wolves, quail, and other game native to the area. Settlers started to come and stake their claims, but many didn't have the money to even buy of land at $1.25 an acre. This land drew many immigrants mainly from the countries of Germany, Switzerland, Luxemburg, and Belgium.
