County History
 |
The
Dakota
Territory's
legislature
authorized a Burbank County (named for
governor John. A. Burbank) in 1872. But in 1874 they renamed it Barnes
County in honor of Judge Alanson H. Barnes (1818-1890) who was an
associate justice of the Territorial Court. It was finally organized in
a meeting at Valley City on January 6, 1879. [source: Wikipedia]
