History & History Related Items
Count Casimer Pulaski was the namesake for the village of Pulaski. He was a "freedom fighter" who fought the Russians in his homeland of Poland from 1770 to 1772. Then, from 1777-1778, he fought with George Washington at Brandywine in our own Revolutionary War. He was made a Brigadier General after the war. In October 1779, he was mortally wounded at Savannah, Georgia while fighting against the British. He died on 11 October 1779.
The first known settler of Pulaski was John J. Hoff, an agent of the General Land Company of Milwaukee. He encouraged others to join him in the area. By 1883, other settlers came into the area. Some of the well-known names were Rudolf Wroblewski, Anthony Kulas, and John Boncel. Being of Polish descent, these settlers wanted to name their new town after the "hometown" Polish hero, General Pulaski.
