WAUBUN, a city in section 24 of Popple Grove Township, has an Ojibwe name, meaning "the east," "the morning," and "the twilight of dawn." It is spelled waban in Baraga's Dictionary, and wabun by Longfellow in The Song of Hiawatha, with definition as the east wind. Another spelling of this name is borne by Waupun, a city in eastern Wisconsin. The city was incorporated as a village on December 18, 1907. When the Soo Line built through the county in 1903-4, the general manager, Pennington, and his chief engineer, Thomas Green, named the stations as they moved the line north; all towns on the reservation had to have Indian names. The post office for this community was established in 1905 as Bement, changing to Waubun in 1906.
