Northfield comprise slightly less than three quarters of the
County's total taxable value.
The first time that the Minnesota territorial legislature
assembled was in St. Paul during the winter of 1849. At the
direction of Governor Ramsey, the Minnesota territory was
divided into districts. By this time, white settlers were
in what is now known as Rice County. A portion of what is
now know as Rice County was eventually created by the territorial
legislature on March 05, 1853.
Rice County was named for Henry Mower Rice was born in Vermont
in 1817. He worked as a fur trader in his early years, later
contributing to his success in helping the government to work
with the Native American Indians in treaty negotiations. The
county was named after him when he became the counties first
state senator.
