In page Swift County, Minnesota:

The Indians had grievances against the United States government, including delays in sending annuities that caused near starvation several times. In August 1862, the Dakota War broke out in Minnesota. The warfare reached the settlements just getting started in what was to become northeastern Swift County.[citation needed] By late September 1862, the war was almost over but the settlers hesitated to venture back to the area until 1865, when all danger was apparently over due to the forcible removal of all Native Americans. Scandinavians and Germans were in decided majority among the early settlers. Norwegian settlers were the first in 1866 at Camp Lake and Swenoda.[1]
