History

Dawson was originally known as Noraville, and under the latter name was platted in 1872 when the Atchison and Nebraska Railroad was extended to that point. The name Noraville caused considerable strife among the town’s residents, who insisted on calling their town Dawson, after Joshua Dawson, an early settler.
