History
on a Pinhead
Originally known as Marekville, the town
was formed in the early 1900s around a store owned by a Mr. T. T. Sefcik. The
thinly populated community was mostly Czech and had only the store and 20 citizens
in 1939. By the mid 1960s, the population was reduced by half and eventually fell
to zero. |
