Preble Town History and Early Settlement Highlights
Preble Township began in 1853 with Norse settlers Ness Ness and Thore Olsen Faa. A Tawney area store was built in 1857 by Toller Halverson, later run by Julius Spande and successors. The Scheie Lutheran Church organized in 1857, with a frame church completed in 1865, and a fire in 1912 led to a rebuilt church in 1913. The first school opened 1859, with later brick structure and 1943 closure. Community leaders and early farms remained in families for generations. The district saw early deaths and a diphtheria epidemic in 1893.
