History

In 1865, Robert Marriner settled in this vicinity, built a dam and sawmill below the present Main Street Bridge, and subsequently platted the village of Cadott. According to tradition, the falls of the river here had been called Cadotte Falls for a member of the famed French-Indian fur trading family. Baptiste Cadotte had a trading post about three-quarters of a mile downstream and, upon his death, was buried near the falls.
