History & History Related Items

Indio history:

early inhabitants of the area were Native American tribes. They lived mostly around the oases and the Whitewater River. It wasn't until the late 1700's that the explorations from Mexico and Spain began. Though more settlers arrived in the area in the early 1800's, the native tribes were not affeccted greatly by the influx of new people. In the mid-1800's, many more people arrived and Indian reservatons were created. Railroad lines were built, depots were built and towns began. Indio began with a depot in the 1870's. The area was first called Indian Wells but was changed to Indio in 1877. The site plan was filed in 1888 and in 1893, Indio became a township in the new Riverside County.
