Early Buffalo Center Iowa Founded In Prairie Settlement Era

The article recalls Buffalo Center Iowa’s origins fifty six years ago as settlers moved from Oelwein and Forest City, built sod houses, and rode wagon to fields. It notes John Slaba and L. M. Slaba, first structures, plat filings in 1892 and 1894, incorporation petitions in 1894, and early banks including Buffalo Center Savings Bank and Buffalo Center State Bank with key founders and dates. It invites locals to loan 50 year old photos with stories for publication.
