Swift County, Minnesota
(Images of America) |
|
Not permanently settled until
after the Civil War, Swift County was one of the last
frontiers of the United States. Once part of the vast
prairie land occupied by the Dakota Indians, settlement
began in the 1860s. The Swift County Historical Society has
compiled over 200 vintage images in order to capture a
glimpse of the region's formative years-the establishment of
its trading centers and industries, as well as the
educational, spiritual, and social lives of its early
settlers.
Located in west central
Minnesota, the small rural towns of Swift County were once
busy trading centers. Through these historic photographs,
the reader can follow the changes that occurred on Atlantic
and Pacific Avenues in Benson from the 1880s to the 1930s,
see the sod house of Swenoda Township, and witness turn of
the century rural life in towns like Danvers, Murdock,
Appleton, and Kerkhoven.
