DeKalb County was organized February 25, 1845, and was named in honor of Baron Johann de Kalb, a Frenchman who fought with Lafayette during the American Revolution. The earliest white settlers of record to this area was Samuel Vesser, making a temporary home near Stewartsville in 1824. It was not until 1844-45 that appearances of the pioneers made their venture into the wilderness to what is now known as Camden Township and the city of Maysville.
On May 25, 1845, the county court of DeKalb County was formally organized at the home of Thomas Hunter. The log residence of John Buckingham, about 1 ¾ miles southeast of Maysville, was used for the circuit courthouse. It was decided to construct a building to be used especially for court purposes, and a small structure was built on Block 2 immediately east of the public square. The county officers moved into this building in early 1847.
This first courthouse was a primitive structure built of logs with two rooms, each about 15 feet square. The interior was as rough as the outside, but such was the spirit of economy of early officials. This log cabin was in use 3 years.
This marked the beginnings of the town of Maysville and the county seat of DeKalb. Other towns sprung up around the centrally located seat; Fairport to the north, Union Star to the northwest, Oak to the west, Clarksdale and Stewartsville to the southwest, Osborn to the south, Weatherby to the east, and Santa Rosa to the northeast. Along with these flourishing towns were several other smaller communities in between that have ceased to exist.
Behind every town, school, church or family are people who molded our DeKalb County area into what it is today. The settlers and their descendants who came to the area left footprints that have shaped our history.
This directory is dedicated to the entrepreneurs of yesterday and the businesses of today that remain and keep our communities alive.
Lives of great men all remind us We can make our lives sublime,
And departing, leave behind us Footprints on the sands of time.
A PSALM OF LIFE by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
