Amish settled in the area by 1791.  Mennonites arrived soon after and the two groups dominate the area's population.  Though some Amish churches in the area allow members to drive motorized vehicles, most local Amish drive horse-powered [[Buggy (carriage)#Amish buggy|buggies]].  The color of the buggy tops, yellow, white, or black, indicate the owner's church membership.<ref name="natgeo"/>
