Read excerpt
When McHenry County and northern Stevens County - which became Ward County in May, 1885 - were settled in the early 1880s, there was a distinctively Scandinavian milieu within the populations of both counties.

This amounted to 71 in a total of 302 heads of households in McHenry County in 1885 (or 23%). In Ward County, the percentage of heads of households from three Scandinavian cou

Editorial Note: This column is continued from July 15. Although Villard did not have a railroad come anywhere near it in the early 1880s, as discussed in the previous article, it had been named for Henry Villard, a German immigrant who was the Northern Pacific Railroad president from 1881 to 1884. His given name was Heinrich Hilgard.
