"The first name given this small town was Pinhook, this being due to a "hairpin" curve in the road at its edge. Later the name was changed to Pleasant Grove. The town of Pleasant Grove was platted in June, 1845 consisting of two blocks lying south of main street. The block on the east side of Logan street was platted by Eli Troutman and the block on the west side by John Troutman. When the post office was created Feb 18, 1847, it was named Kewanna because there was already another post office named Pleasant Grove in Jasper County….The first settlers came to the Kewanna area September 28, 1837, led by John Troutman. John's elder brother, Michael Troutman, Thomas Barnett and Isaac Cannon brought their families also, and a little neighborhood was formed. " [Kewanna, The Pleasant Grove, Fulton Co Folks, Vol 2, Willard]

The name Kewanna was adopted in 1871 when the town was incorporated. The city was named for Kee-Wau-Nay whose Potawatomi band lived near 1837 when they were conducted to Kansas by George Proffit. E1cannon 22:15, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
