Faith, South Dakota : ウィキペディア英語版 | Faith, South Dakota
Faith is a city in Meade County, South Dakota, United States. The population was 421 at the 2010 census. Sue, the most complete ''Tyrannosaurus rex'' skeleton known, was discovered about 15 miles northeast of Faith in August 1990. ==History== Local residents have been known to say the town was named Faith because it took faith to live out on the prairie.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= About Faith )〕 However, the story of the city as documented in various informal, locally published histories, is that the town was named for Faith Rockefeller, one of the daughters of a major investor in the railroad responsible for founding the town.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= City of Faith, South Dakota )〕 This is in keeping with the names of other towns on the route of the old railroad (now abandoned), such as Isabel, South Dakota. Faith was the permanent end of the railroad, a local spur off the Milwaukee Road Railroad. The city was established in 1910.〔
