As of the 2020 United States Census, the population was 856. Its county seat is Hayes Center. The county was created in 1877, and was organized in 1884. It was named for Rutherford B. Hayes, the US President at the time of the county’s creation.Hayes Center was known as the Wind-Mill City as each family had their own wind-mill for their water supply, there was also a public wind-mill and tank that was located in the middle of main street, where people watered their livestock. But today wind-mills are a thing of the past, as even most farmers use electric pumps to get their water supply.The country now included in Hayes County was formerly part of the great buffalo range, the cherished hunting grounds of the Indians. Settlement was delayed for many years because of the hostility of the Red Men. Many bloody battles were fought between the various Indian tribes, particularly the Pawnee and the Sioux, over the possession and use of this ground.The first white men were hunters. Doctor W. F. Carver, “Buffalo Bill” Cody, and other famous frontier characters hunted here to supply meat for the workmen and soldiers during the building of the Union Pacific railroad in 1868-69. In the early seventies sportsmen came from all over the world to hunt in the valley of the Red Willow, the Frenchman’s Fork and the Stinking Water, the latter stream got its name from the hundreds of rotting carcasses left on its bank and in its bed by the hunters. Carver claimed in 1873 that he himself had killed at least thirty thousand buffalo. This was the year after the famous hunt staged with elaborate ceremony in honor of Grand Duke Alexis, twenty-two year old brother of the reigning Czar of Russia. This party, led by “Buffalo Bill” Cody as chief of scouts and accompanied by General Sheriden and officers from Fort McPherson, camped the Big Blackwood eight miles northeast of the present site of Hayes Center. The famous Sioux Chief, Spotted Tail, along with one hundred warriors presented a demonstration of the Indian method of hunting. Followed by a war dance, the whole affair was a brilliant success and the Duke himself succeeded in killing several buffalo. Location Hayes County Upland and CRP is located just of Hwy 25 north of Palisade, Nebraska.  It is within a 3.5 hour drive of Denver and the front range of Colorado and 4 hours from Lincoln, Nebraska.  Access is easy from highway 25 as well as the two county maintained roads that border the property. Call Clay Owens or Dax Hayden today for more details or to see this property.

Founded in the 1880s during the westward expansion of the railroad, Stratton was established as a station along the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy Railroad. The town quickly became a hub for agriculture and commerce, serving local farming communities.Hitchcock County was officially organized in 1886 and named after U.S. Senator Phineas W. Hitchcock. The area was originally home to Native American tribes, including the Pawnee and Sioux. Settlement began in earnest after the passage of the Homestead Act and the expansion of the railroad system, which brought in pioneers seeking farmland and opportunity. Agriculture, particularly wheat and corn farming, has long been the backbone of the county’s economy.Today, both Stratton and Hitchcock County retain their rural charm and agricultural roots, reflecting the pioneering spirit of early settlers and the continuing importance of farming in Nebraska’s history.
