HISTORY OF COLUMBIA COUNTY
published in 1914; pp. 288-289, 430-431

SEEKING A LOCATION ON FOOT

"On the 24th of September, having previously agreed upon them, Robert Closs, David D. Roberts, John R. Rowlands, Sr., Evan Edwards and Jabez Lloyd left their families at the places mentioned, and were joined by E.B. Williams, William R. Williams, John O. Jones and John Edwards (single men). The party then started on foot in search of a suitable place on which to locate, traveling westward over the eastern part of the state, and passing through the village of Fox Lake, where a branch land office was located, the main Government Land Office being then located in Green Bay. They entered into Columbia, then called Portage County, about four miles north of the present site of the village of Randolph, arriving foot-sore and weary on Saturday evening, September 27th, at the shanty of Foulk Roberts on Section 12, Township 13, Range 12, then being a part of the LeRoy Precinct.

"After resting themselves on Sunday at Mr. Roberts' they continued their westward course until they came to a point in the Fox River near the center of Section 16, Township 13, Range 11. There they discontinued for the first time their westward course and turned south, passing over Portage Prairie. On this path they met Samuel McConochie, M.W. Patten, John and Ervin McCall, and John Dodge, who were also newcomers preparing to erect cabins on their claims. Mr. Dodge having nearly completed his cabin, prevailed upon them to stop with him for dinner, which was cooked and prepared by Mr. Dodge personally and, of course, free of charge, which was characteristic of those days.

"After dinner they kept on their southerly course, crossing the north branch of Duck Creek about two miles west of where the village of Cambria is now located. It is interesting to note that the site of the village was entered upon by Samuel P. Langdon, and conveyed to him on the 14th day of June 1845; and it is also claimed and conceded that Mrs. Jabez Lloyd, wife of one of the investigating party of that name, late of Mankato, Minnesota, was the first white woman to step on Cambria soil.

DECIDE ON WELSH PRAIRIE

"After crossing Duck Creek the party entered South Prairie, to which they took quite a fancy, and after traveling over the land, examined the quality of the soil, locating the timber land and investigating the source of the water supply, late in the afternoon they walked up to the highest point, which was about half a mile southwest of Zion's Church of Springvale, and there sat down on the green grass deliberating over the situation and comparing notes on the different localities though which they had passed during the week. Viewing the beautiful landscape before them and stretching in splendor for miles in every direction under the variable-colored rays of the setting sun, they deliberately decided to make that locality their place of future abode, hoping that the future would gather to form a Welsh colony.

FIFTY-THREE COLONISTS "AT HOME"

"After deciding on the location, they prepared to return, calling first at the Fox Lake land office to enter their claims. Then, returning to their families at Milwaukee and Racine, they immediately prepared to move onto their farms, coming over in covered emigrant wagons -- 'prairie schooners' -- and by the middle of October they were all on their places, housed in what people nowadays would call 'miserable shanties,' but to them, after their wearisome journey, they were 'comfortable homes.' Facing the winter of 1845-46, the settlement contained in round numbers, including children, fifty-three persons, composed of nine families and seven single men.

ONLY THREE LEFT IN 1912

"A word on the origin of the name, Welsh Prairie, may be interesting. Before leaving the spot which the exploring party decided as their location, and in full view of the scenery before them, one of the party suggested that the beautiful prairie lying before them should thereafter be called Welsh Prairie; and to this, all agreed. Hence the name, dear to the memory of and quite a drawing card in bringing together many of the hosts of Home Comers that visited Cambria on the 3d, 4th and 5th of July, 1912, from New York to California and from Canada to Texas; and now after a lapse of sixty-seven years. out of the party of fifty-three persons mentioned, only three of us are left to represent the early settlers of '45 at the glorious Cambria reunion of 1912."

SPRINGVALE'S FIRST SETTLER

The first settler in Springvale was Ervin McCall. Late in April 1845, he entered the town in search of a home, and went no further, but returned to the sub-landoffice at Fox Lake and filed his claim on an eighty-acre tract. He then returned to his home in La Porte, by way of Watertown and Milwaukee, and early in September started for his Wisconsin home with his family, brother, wagon, two york of oxen, half a barrel of pork and limited supply of other provisions and household goods. While fording Fox River in Illinois, the wagon was overturned and Mrs. McCall's arm broken. The broken arm was temporarily adjusted and the party came on to Rock County, Wisconsin, where his brother-in-law, M.W. Patton, resided. There Mr. McCall left his family and, with his brother, pushed on with the family outfit for the Springvale claim in the northeastern part of the town. The first night after their arrival was spent at the log house of Sam Langdon on the present site of Cambria, and the next day they commenced haying on the marsh nearby, in order to get in a winter's supply for their stock. They built a log house on the
claim a short distance west, and then Ervin returned to Rock County for his family.
Mr. Patton and his family came to Columbia County with the McCalls but located in the Town of Scott, where he became prominent. They all arrived at the hospitable house of Mr. Langdon on the night of the 15th of November, and the next day the McCall family moved into their new cabin which awaited them.

HIGH-PRICED RELIGION

During the first winter of the McCall's residence there, after making the necessary purchases of provisions to last until spring he inventoried his worldly goods and found that his cash assets amounted to two twenty-five cent pieces. A little later two Methodist circuit riders -- the elder being Rev. W.G. Miller, afterwards eminent and always popular -- penetrated to the northeastern part of the county and stopped at the Langdon house. There Mr. Miller delivered a sermon, to which the McCalls were eager listeners; so much so, that the head of the family donated one of his two twenty-five cent pieces to the cause, or rather to assist in defraying the traveling expenses of the good missionaries. That night
also they were entertained at the McCalls, where other religious services were held, the first in the town.

STAMPS, STEVENSON, "SCOOPS"

THE POST OFFICE

"Mail call for Centerville". Centerville? Cambria was once Langdon's Mill, Belleville, and Florence, but never Centerville.

For four years before Cambria received her post office, Centerville three miles to the north of Cambria at what is now the intersection of Hwy 33 and Englehart Road, was the stage coach stop for the mail coaches traveling east and west, approximately along what is now Highway 33. As the stages for tehse coaches were at intervals of from five to seven miles, Centerville was the closest to the growing settlement along Duck Creek. Previous to the year 1850, the nearest post office was at Fox Lake.

After the arrival of a Mr. L. Richards in 1852, this gentleman, along with Lewis Lloyd and Peter Houston began to urge the government through petitions and letters to authorize an office in Cambria. It took two years before Mr. William Post was appointed the first postmaster at the Cambria Post Office. However, it wasn't until 1857 and the advent of the railroad, that Cambria had direct mail service. Until that time, a man was sent to Centerville to collect the mail.

Sometime during the period of 1898 and 1919, the post office was located at the present site. In the same period, the first rural route was established with Benjamin Roberts as the first carrier on rural route one in 1900. In 1964, a new post office building was erected and dedicated.
