Genealogy Trails is an independent group of volunteers, not
affiliated with any other group.
We fund and support our
own needs, and our purpose for existing is to place data online for
the FREE use of all researchers.
If you have a love of history and genealogy, enjoy helping people,
and have a basic knowledge of web authoring, consider joining
us!

Regretfully, we have no time available
to perform research for anybody
Todd County
The county was created in 1909, although it remains unorganized.
The county was named for John Blair Smith Todd, a delegate from Dakota Territory to the United States House of Representatives and a Civil War general.
The county lies entirely within the Rosebud Indian Reservation and is coterminous with the main reservation (exclusive of off-reservation trust lands, which lie in four nearby counties). Its southern border is with the state of Nebraska. It is one of five South Dakota counties entirely within an Indian reservation.
Todd County does not have its own county seat. Winner in neighboring Tripp County serves as its administrative center.
The largest city is Mission.
