History

The present-day town of Barneston was settled at the site of one of the largest Oto villages in the 19th century. The agency and a trading post were located there. Barneston was founded by a French fur trapper who was married to an Oto woman.

Barnestown was platted in 1884 when the Marysville and Blue Valley Railroad was extended to that point. The community was named after Francis M. Barnes, an early settler.
