MORRILL COUNTY

MORRILL COUNTY

Morrill county, as a separate entity, in 1921, is only a child of a dozen years, for it has been only twelve years that this county has existed under its separate name, as a full-fledged institution apart from the mother county of Cheyenne. But the tale of the settlement and development of the area of territory which comprises Morrill county reached back into the Cheyenne county realm, and the narration of the part played by those pioneer spirits who have built up Merrill county is most appropriately told under this section of the general story of the western Nebraska garden spot.

Fortunately, some years before his death, Judge George J. Hunt, who played such a large part in the development of Morrill county, reduced to writing some reminiscences and impressions of the formative years of the county's development and growth, and the compilers give practically in its entirety this story of Morrill county's beginnings, and evolution from Cheyenne county into separate entity.
