Fifty Mennonite families from Marion County relocate to Hamilton County along the Santa Fe lines. They establish farms near Bear Creek valley and in the Smoky and Cottonwood river valleys. They bring wheat seed silk culture hopes, mulberry trees, and a sturdy work ethic shaping banking, merchandising, and milling in new communities. They thrive with windmills supplying water, large gardens, orchards, and expanding stock as they farm without irrigation. The piece notes rapid settlement patterns and growing prosperity in Syracuse and surrounding towns.
