"LaCrosse was incorporated on February 19, 1917.

Railroad Town: With the completion in 1888 of the O.R. & N railroad line between Riparia and LaCrosse, George Dawson and his wife built a shack constructed from railroad ties. By 1889, LaCrosse boasted a population of 12. The first real store was constructed in 1899 by Tom Shobe.

LaCrosse is spelled in a variety of ways, including LaCrosse, La Crosse and Lacrosse.
