In the spring of 1858 the first frame
house on the prairie was erected, and in

the oldest native of Winona was born.
On the fourth day of May. of the same
year. Rev. Edward Ely. long alnoe well
known as Elder Ely. landed here from
the creamer Executor. and atruok with
the advantage. of the location. settled
here-permanently. and has been a mi-

pioneers and associates of early days

native of Connecticut, having been born
and brought up in Middletown.
In June. 1858, the ground was survey-v

formerly named Montezuma, which in
January. 1858. was changed to Winona,

the place after it took its new name. In
the following spring the official cove-

barrel of flour. or its equivalent. to Wa-

porated in March. 1857. and from that
date it has bad a steady and healthy
growth. In population and wealth it is
the third city in the atatc. The oity‘a
municipal affairs have been wisely and
judiciously administered. and Winona
