Custer county History Custer County Communities
BUFFALO GAP
Buffalo Gap, founded in 1877, was named due to buffalo traveling through the gap of the
nearby Beaver Creek. A post office was established and by 1884 there were over 1200 people in
residence. As the railroad arrived in 1885, the area continued to grow and had a variety of sa-
loons, hotels, specialty shops and a bank. A boomtown and cattle town, Buffalo Gap has since
grown to a small rural community. Today Buffalo Gap is home to approximately 154 residents.
CUSTER (COUNTY SEAT)
General George A. Custer commanded an expedition to the area in search of gold in 1874. As
gold was discovered, a community was quickly founded and Custer was originally known as
Stonewall. By 1875 there were several thousand people panning for gold and Stonewall was
renamed Custer. Within a year, news spread of gold found in Deadwood Gulch and Custer was
left almost abandoned. In 1877 Custer was selected as the county seat and the area grew slow-
ly. The Harney National Forest Headquarters were established in 1898 and Custer State Park
was then founded in 1913. Today Custer is home to approximately 1,980 residents.
As gold was discovered in the Black Hills, Custer County was established. Founded in 1877,
Custer County was named after General George A. Custer. The county seat was originally cho-
sen as Hayward, but due to an undecided election, Custer City was able to successfully battle
for the county seat. Residents of Custer City devised a plan of staging a massacre to distract
Hayward officials and the county seat was secured. As the Burlington Railroad arrived in 1890,
Custer County continued to grow until the gold rush ended. Industry began to include agri-
culture, mining, ranching and tourism. Today Custer County is home to approximately 7,924
residents.

DEADWOOD (COUNTY SEAT)
Once an illegal community, Deadwood was incorporated in 1876 and named after dead trees
found in the nearby canyon. Gambling, prostitution and gold mining attracted settlers and by
1880 its population reached 5,000. Deadwood became famous for the murder of Wild Bill Hickok
and the community was widely recognized for its lawless character. As the gold rush ended,
Deadwood was almost destroyed by fire. The railroad arrived in 1881 and Deadwood continued to
prosper, having the first telephone service in South Dakota. It was the trading center for the Black
Hills and selected as the county seat. Today Deadwood is home to approximately 1,272 residents.
LEAD
In 1876 the Homestake Mining Company founded Lead as a company town. As families grew, the
need for education grew. Phoebe Hearst, local resident, established a kindergarten school and a
library in 1900. As the gold rush slowed, Lead’s population began to decline. With over four hun-
dred historic buildings, much of Lead was registered on the National Register of Historic Places in
1974. Today Lead is home to approximately 2,848 residents.
SPEARFISH
The name Spearfish was coined by local Native Americans and fur traders and trappers as the
local stream was a prime place for spearing fish. The community was platted in 1876 and a post
office and general store were established a year later. The Spearfish Normal School was built in
1883, which is now recognized as Black Hills State University. As the railroad arrived in 1893,
Spearfish continued to grow. The D.C. Booth Fish Hatchery and Matthew’s Opera House are locat-

BOX ELDER
Settled in a fertile valley, Box Elder was founded as the railroad arrived in 1907. It was named af-
ter the local box elder trees and the community began to grow. A post office, school and general
stores were established, attracting many settlers. It is the site of the Ellsworth Airforce Base and
the Air and Space Museum. Today Box Elder is home to approximately 4,271 residents.
ELLSWORTH AIRFORCE BASE
The Ellsworth Airforce Base was established in 1942 to train military pilots for World War II. It was
first known as the Rapid City Army Air Base until it was renamed in honor of Brigadier General
Richard E. Ellsworth. It now houses the 28th Bomb Wing of the Air Combat Command and is
NASA Space Shuttle’s emergency landing site. Today the Ellsworth Airforce Base is home to ap-
proximately 4,165 residents.
PIEDMONT
As the railroad arrived in the late 1800s, Piedmont was established. Its name is French for foot of
the mountain, as it lies near the base of the Black Hills. The community attracted miners, lumber-
ers and pioneers and has since continued to grow. Piedmont was officially incorporated in 2008.
Today Piedmont is home to approximately 2,820 residents.
STURGIS (COUNTY SEAT)
Fort Meade was established in 1878 to defend settlers and gold miners of the Black Hills area
and Sturgis grew as a boomtown. Sturgis became a stagecoach and freight stop and the com-
munity was named in honor of Colonel Samuel D. Sturgis, Fort Meade commander. Sturgis was
incorporated in 1888 and later selected as the county seat. As the gold rush ended, development

Pennington County History Pennington County Communities
HILL CITY
Hill City, the oldest city in Pennington County, grew as a mining town in the 1800s. First settled in
1876, Hill City was originally known as Hillyo. A post office was established in 1877 and as the gold
rush ended, Hill City was left almost deserted. With the discovery of tin in 1883, Hill City was once
again booming. A school was built in 1921 and the area grew as a popular tourist destination with
the establishment of Custer State Park and Mount Rushmore. Today Hill City is home to approxi-
mately 927 residents.
KEYSTONE
Gold was found in the Keystone area and was first settled by Fred J. Cross in 1877. Originally known
as Crossville, Keystone was platted by Jacob Reed and the community was renamed. Keystone grew
