xxxOld
Enders was named for Peter Enders, and located two miles east of the present
Enders near the Frenchman River. It was platted in 1890, and had a switch
yard, and a District 41 school house.
Mr. Geo. W. Brown, father of Clyde Brown, helped move old Enders to the
present site. The dedication deed for New Enders is dated in 1908. The
first church was Pioneer Church, which is the present Church of the Brethren.
Geo. Brown was first postmaster at New Enders, and had a store in conjunction
with the post office. Three generations of Mr. Brown’s family have
served as postmaster at different times, his son Clyde Brown and the son
of Clyde, Hubert Brown. There was a feed store at the new site before
the school was moved. The move was made to get out of the hills. |
