ABOUT WAUKESHA

Waukesha, the county seat of Waukesha County, is situated on the Fox River, 18 miles west of Milwaukee. Morris D. Cutler founded Waukesha in 1834. Before being the county seat, the city was known as Prairieville. Until their removal in 1835, the local Potawatomi, Menomonee, and Ho-Chunk Indians farmed corn, pumpkins, berries, nuts, and wild game.

European settlers quickly established economic engines by building sawmills, flour mills, and granaries. Waukesha's springs gained notoriety in the 19th century for their curative properties. Several people traveled great distances to visit the spa town. Waukesha's healing waters era ended, but the city became a major producer of other goods, including water, beer, soda, dairy products, iron, and steel. Waukesha has an excellent road network to transport the goods to Milwaukee and other Lake Michigan ports.

Several people of different nationalities settled in Waukesha, Wisconsin. Governors William A. Barstow (1813-1865) and Alexander Randall (1837-1848) both called Wisconsin home (1819-1872). Carroll College, located in Waukesha, was incorporated in 1846 by the territorial government as Wisconsin's first college.
