History & geography

History

The first settlement at the place which later became the village of Steinauer was made in 1856 by Joseph A. Steinauer and his two brothers, Anton and Nicholas, after they were forced to leave their native Switzerland due to famine and depression in 1852. Warnings to avoid “Bloody Kansas” prompted them to settle in what would become Pawnee County. The Steinauer post office was established in 1874, solidifying the settlement's name. The village was platted in 1887 when the Chicago, Rock Island, and Pacific Railroad was extended to that point, and was named for Joseph A. Steinauer, the first postmaster.
