Oskaloosa, Iowa derives its name from Ouscaloosa who, according to town lore, was a Creek princess who married Seminole chief Osceola. Oskaloosa in the Mvskoke-Creek language means black rain, from the Mvskoke words oske (rain) and lvste (black). loosa is an English corruption of the Mvskoke word lvste . The first European-American settlers arrived in 1835, led by Nathan Boone, youngest son of frontiersman Daniel Boone. In the late 1800s and early 1900s many of Oskaloosa's present landmarks were built. In 1873 William Penn College was founded as Penn Academy. Also that year the first bandstand was built in the city square. In 1886 the Mahaska County Courthouse was built, and it remains in use to this day. In 1903 the Carnegie Library opened. Also, President Teddy Roosevelt helped dedicate the YMCA building. • If you have enjoyed this wandering walk and would like to be a part of the journey, I have Patreon!!!
