Plainfield was first settled by a pioneer from New York State, William N. Kelly, in October of 1848. He was the first in the town to erect his house in Section 24. In 1849, Elijah C. Waterman, a native from Vermont, came to the site of Plainfield. He laid out the village site, made a claim, then offered free lots to settlers if they would build and reside upon them.
