Book Watertown and Codington County  South Dakota

Download or read book Watertown and Codington County South Dakota written by Lisa D. Hanson and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2002 with total page 132 pages.

With its new location came a new name: Watertown. An influx of German and Norwegian settlers in the early 1900s brought Codington County close to its current population of over 25,000
