General Custer and his troops traveled through the area on their expeditions to the Black Hills. In the early 1900s, the area was settled by European immigrants under the Homestead Act. In the 1930s a severe drought along with high winds turned the area into a Dust Bowl. This time was known as the Great Depression and many of the settlers experienced great financial hardships.
