November 10, 1908, as Ladbury township, its name was changed to Sibley, January 19, 1909, and finally to Sibley Trail Township, April 13, 1910, for the route of General Sibley through the northern part of Barnes County and particularly for the place where he crossed the Sheyenne River.
January 28, 1891, the township was named for the rural PO of Skandia, and was settled mainly by Norwegians and Swedes, many of whom came in the early 1880's.
Since the township is immediately north of Standing Rock, the first settlers who came in 1878 found Indians nearby frequently, and Ole Baarstad, the settler nearest to Standing Rock, often bartered milk for venison in 1879 and 1880.

The township system in Michigan is rife with old-timers and people set in their ways.
Furthermore, since Michigan allows easy voter recall, many township boards are extremely worried about upsetting citizens and being voted out of office, so they make their decisions based on keeping their own hides intact.
Also, Michigan township voters have the right to call for a public vote on certain planning issues, so boards often just do things so that the public won’t fight.
