Elvers Corner developed as a local center with a saw mill, grist mill, post office, grocery store, hotel, blacksmith shop, dance hall, and, until 1958, the Town Hall. In 1847 Samuel Lattimer built a saw mill that operated until 1865, when it was converted to a grist mill. In 1876 the mill passed to Charles Elver. In 1877 John Lohrs built a two-story frame store and hotel opposite the mill. On September 14, 1878, a post office named Elvers was established here.
