A Brief History
Geneva was platted in 1857, but our post office has been in operation since 1855.
The city was named after Geneva, NY and was the birthplace of Lawrence B. Anderson (1906-1994), noted architect and educator who graduated from the University of Minnesota and lead the architecture school at Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
