Kerrick, who was born at Greensburg, Ind., in 1847; came to Minnesota, settling in Minneapolis, as master mechanic for the Great Northern Railway; later was a contractor, erecting many railway bridges; removed to Pasadena, Calif., in 1913, and died there March 12, 1918. The city was incorporated as a village on October 22, 1946; the post office was established in 1891, with Frank Duquette as first postmaster, for whom the village of Duquette, previously named Kerrick, in section 24 of the township is named.
