An account from the chapter on Dayton city, in the words of 1882.

The county history of 1882 has no passage naming this settlement, which was common for the smaller places. Its township is covered in full.

Museums hold 1,036 specimens collected within 10 miles of Fort McKinley between 1835 and 1975: 880 Animalia, 88 Plantae, 59 Fungi, 4 Protozoa, 4 Unrecorded, 1 Chromista. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by A. E. Foeerste, A. E. Foerste, A. F. Foerste and others. Each is a physical object with a catalogue number, and each entry opens the museum's record. This is what was collected and kept, not a survey of what lives here - nothing can be concluded from a species being absent.
