History

Founded in 1873

An old deed may name a county that no longer exists, or a boundary that has since moved.

Greeley County was created from Non-County Area 6 in 1873 but was not fully organized at that time. The county was attached to neighboring counties for judicial purposes over several years: Ford in 1881, Finney in 1885, and Hamilton in 1886. Greeley County became fully organized and independent on July 9, 1888, when it was detached from Hamilton.

Boundary changes from the Newberry Library, Atlas of Historical County Boundaries.
