EARLY HISTORY OF MARSHFIELD
Marshfield was named after John J. Marsh, of Haverville, Mass., one of the original proprietors of the town site.
Around 1865, the Fox and Wisconsin Improvement Co. was organized, and entered into a contract with the State
to complete waterway improvements on the Fox and Wisconsin Rivers to make possible the navigation between
Green Bay and the Mississippi. When the work was not completed by 1866, a new company known as the
Green Bay and Mississippi Improvement Co. was formed to take over the work. When this company dissolved,
the site of Marshfield became the property of John Magee and Samuel Marsh. In 1886, Louis and Frank Rivers
settled here. In April 1871, the Rivers brothers purchased a tract of land from Samuel Marsh on which they built
a log house was later used as a dwelling, store, tavern, and eventually a post office. In June 1871, Peter
McGuigan arrived and opened a small store and saloon. That same year many other settlers arrived.
The Wisconsin Central Railroad (now known as the Soo Line) came through with the first train on July 4, 1872.
The first official post office was established in 1872, of which Louis Rivers was the Postmaster until June 1887,
and was succeeded by E.S. Renne, proprietor of the first drug store. The first school was opened in the summer
of 1873 with Clara Davis, Fanny Baker, and Ella Kelly being the first teachers. In 1874, Jerry Couture built the
first frame house in the village on South Depot Street, and by 1875 Marshfield had 22 frame buildings. The plat
for Marshfield was surveyed in December 1875, with the assistance of J.P. Buck and J.J. Marsh, and recorded on
September 9, 1875. Among the first professionals to come to the area were W.T. Shaw, as acting physician; and
lawyers Frank Kirkland and A.E. Deming.
The first Sunday school met in November 1878. On November 27, 1878, Rev. Jacob Patch organized the First
Presbyterian Church. Prior to 1878, Catholic meetings were held in the River's house; they were later held in the
schoolhouse until the completion of the first Catholic church in 1880. The first Methodist church was built in
1883. Also that same year, the City of Marshfield was incorporated and the first city election returned L.A.
Arnold as the first Mayor of the city. The first newspaper began in 1879, the Marshfield Times. The first bank,
First National Bank organized as a branch of the Clark County Bank of Neillsville, was established in December
1880. The Marshfield City Library was first organized in the early 1880's with 500 volumes donated to the city by
John J. Marsh of New York through Mrs. W.H. Upham. The first fire department was organized in May 2, 1883,
with R.H. Howrath elected the first captain. In June 1887, a fire, started in the lumber yards of Upham Mfg. Co.,
destroyed most of the city. The electric lights and waterworks were installed in 1889. The Marshfield telephone
system was started by Theo. Springborn, around 1890. The Roddis Lumber and Veneer Co. was established by
William Roddis in 1894. St. Joseph's Hospital was established in 1890, and was incorporated in 1891 by the
Sisters of the Sorrowful Mother, and the first building was erected during the year 1891. The Marshfield Clinic
was organized in 1916 and started business in January, 1917. Felker Bros. Mfg. Co. was organized in Kendall, WI
in 1903 and came to Marshfield in December of 1908. The S. Miller Fruit Co. had its beginning in 1901. The
Police Department was organized on July 1, 1910, with Michael Griffin serving as the first Chief of Police.
Marshfield Lodge No. 224, A.R.M. was established in November, 1882, and the Chapter 78, R.A.M. on May 26,
1902. Chapter 95 Eastern Star was established on December 23, 1896. Marshfield Lodge 100, Odd Fellows, was
established June 6, 1889. Hub Rebekah Lodge No. 158 was instituted June 2, 1897. Lodge 665 Order of Elks was

PHILOSOPHY
The School District of Marshfield is a public institution organized to educate students from grades 4K – 12. We
accept learning as the fundamental purpose of our schools and therefore are willing to examine all practices,
policies, and procedures in light of their impact on student learning. By establishing a primary focus on learning,

as Professional Learning Communities and endorse the following principles:
The team is the fundamental building block and engine of improvement.
We work interdependently to achieve common goals that are directly related to improved
student learning.
Students are provided increased levels of time and support in a manner that is relevant,
directive and systematic.
Student learning includes academic, intellectual, social and personal development.
We are mutually accountable for achieving these goals.
Teams are provided with the time, resources and support to be effective.
GOALS
I. The school district will provide quality, diverse programs that allow students to develop their
capabilities.
II. The school district will encourage the professional, occupational, and personal development of its
employees.
