Evidence of the Indians here are on what is called Pedersen's Hill. Indian beads, tomahawks, trails and mounds have been found here. It has not been established whether or not there are bodies in the graves. On land owned by Mrs. Henry Pedersen (section 33) there are holes dug where Forties of Sibley's expedition and his 2500 men stayed overnight on July 20 and 21, 1863. The indentations are assumed to be where the soldiers slept. There is also an Indian grave here, possibly killed in a skirmish in those days.
