Its name was derived from ''Lagonda'' (an early American settlement near Springfield) and the ''Lagonda Creek'', where on its banks the town of Springfield was settled. "Lagonda" was a Shawnee Indian term meaning buck's horn and some point the creek was renamed ''Buck Creek''. Origin of the club started in May 1886. At that time, under the leadership of ''Rev. George W. Ziegler'' of the ''Wiley Chapel M.E. Church'', he organized with church members 14 civic clubs. These clubs, called the ''Wiley's Chapel Clubs'', were formed for the purpose of liquidating the church indebtness. One of them was the Wesley Lagonda Club with ''J. O. Underwood'' as president. Shortly after the name was shorten to ''Lagonda Club''.〔3〕
