History:

DUQUETTE, a village in section 24 of Kerrick Township, was built on an early Indian village site; the first settlers were French Canadians, among them Frank Duquette, who built a sawmill and store. The village was named Kerrick until the Great Northern Railway depot was moved three miles south, keeping that name, and for a period Duquette was called Old Kerrick, the new site being called New Kerrick; the names were corrected when the Duquette post office was established in 1905.
