History:  

DENNISON, a city in Warsaw and Northfield Townships with Rice County, was named in honor of Morris P. Dennison, a settler near its site in 1856, on whose land the village was located. The village was settled by 1849, platted in 1884, incorporated as a village on December 3, 1904, and separated from the townships on July 20, 1907. Its post office began in 1885, although there is some confusion as to whether it was named Spring Creek before the post office was established in postmaster Gunnar A. Bonhus's general store. Dennison visited Minnesota in 1849 from Vermont, brought his family in 1856, and filed a land claim, building a log shanty in the center of the city; he moved to Northfield in 1865 and died in a farm accident in 1879.
