Eyota Township organized in 1858, was at first named
Springfield, which was changed in 1859 to this Dakota word, spelled
iyotan by Rev. Stephen R. Riggs in the Dakota Dictionary,
meaning "greatest, most." The city of Eyota in sections 11 and 15,
platted in November 1864, was incorporated February 16, 1875. The
post office was established as Greenfield in 1857 and changed to
Eyota in 1864; it had a station of the Chicago Great Western and
the Winona and St. Peter Railroads.
