The History of the Christian Fish Symbol

Like many prairie towns, Edgerton owes its birth to the coming of the railways and the opening of the West. The railroad reached the site of modern day Edgerton in 1908. The town was named Edgerton, so called after one of the railway workers. He insisted that a 'D' be included, in the hopes that unlike his name the new town would be properly pronounced. The first Edgerton School was built in 1910 as a single room building capable of holding fifty to sixty individuals, followed by the Edgerton Station in 1911. The village was officially founded and incorporated on September 11, 1917. Village of Edgerton
