The name Medford is thought to have come from "the ford by the meadow" or "Meadford" thus commemorating the importance of the fordable part of the Mystic River located just west of present-day Medford Square. The original area of Medford was owned by Mathew Cradock, the first Governor of the Massachusetts colonies. Although Cradock never saw it, he employed men to develop his land into a plantation. After his death, the plantation passed to his heirs and then was sold en masse in 1652 to Edward Collins. The area was designated a "peculiar" which signified that it was private property and not a properly incorporated town. Collins began selling pieces of land to others after 1656. In 1684, Medford was granted the right to raise its own money by the General Court. In 1892, Medford became incorporated as a city.

Sibley County is located in southcentral Minnesota. The population at the 2000 census was 15,356. The county seat is Gaylord... It is impossible to give a detailed and reliable history of the beginning of Sibley County, because the records were destroyed by fire October 18, 1863. What data is available for that period is the result of conversations with several of the early settlers. If errors exist, as they undoubtedly do, we must take into consideration the difficulty of giving, from memory alone, a correct account of those years.
