History:  

GENEVA, settled in 1855-56, was organized May 11, 1858. Its village in sections 7 and 8, platted in the winter of 1856-57, had been named by Edwin C. Stacy, the first postmaster there and the first probate judge for the county, "in remembrance of Geneva, N.Y.," whence the large adjoining lake and the township received the same name. It was incorporated November 24, 1889; the post office, begun in 1856, was located first in the O. G. Goodnature home, with John Heath and later E. C. Stacy, postmasters.
