Brief
History from wikipedia:
Greeley County was
organized on July 6, 1888, by W. C. Gerald
and W. L. Wright. The county is named for
Horace Greeley,
editor of the New York Tribune,
and contains the cities of Horace and
Tribune.
On August 2, 1887, the
Denver, Memphis, and Atlantic Railroad
Company laid its track into the town of
Horace. The
railroad, later part of the Missouri
Pacific, contributed to the settlement of
the county.
