It was originally settled by Yankee settlers from New England. These were people descended from the English Puritans who settled New England in the colonial period. They were part of a migration of Yankee settlers from New England who moved west into the wilds of what was then the wilds of the Northwest Territory in the 1830s. The opening of the Erie Canal made this journey much easier, and the end of the Black Hawk War made the region much safer. These two events saw the already steady trickle of New Englanders turn into a heavy stream of migration. The founding of De Soto, Wisconsin was one small part of that migration.〔Discovering Wisconsin, Wisconsin House, 1973 page 182〕〔The Yankee Exodus: An Account of Migration from New England by Stewart Hall Holbrook University of Washington Press, 1968 〕
