There’s a story told that, back in the 1830s, a few families had
settled in the Nodaway County area before they were supposed to be
here, while it was still Indian territory. And when the census takers
came around to find people, they would hide out so as to not get
caught. No one knows for sure if the story is true or not. What is
known is that their names couldn’t be found on census records in other
parts of the state, so they had either moved or were actually hiding.
