The old Indian trail that followed the Elkhart River turned here to the northwest and connected the Miamis Fort with Fort St. Joseph. From the time of the French and Indian War in 1755 to 1763 until the settlement of this section in 1830, this trail was the main thoroughfare between Fort Wayne, Indiana, and Niles, Michigan, where these forts were then located.
