The unusual name may have been a corruption of an Indian word for theCaracara, a handsome Eagle-like bird often seen in the company of vultures.
The town was planned in 1845 and the first 10 families of Alsatians moved here in 1846. The Indians promptly killed two of the families and were a persistent problem until the 1870s.
Other families joined the original families and they formed a church in 1852.
They had a post office from 1854 until 1872, and that same year, residents of Quihi were credited with starting the first public school in Medina County.
