Judge J.C. Lambdin was the Chairman of the Board of Eldorado Town Company in September 1871, when election was first held for Mayor, Council Members and Sheriff. This election on September 12, 1871, marked the date we officially recognize as the founding of El Dorado but was not the town's beginning.
The beginning is documented as June 15, 1857 when a group of men from Lawrence headed West to expand the voting district for the Free State Party. They eventually settled along the West Branch of the Walnut River and named their settlement Eldorado and incorporated the Eldorado Town Company with the Kansas Territorial Legislature on February 6, 1858
Lambdin originally arrived in Butler County in August of 1857 and helped to form Chelsea.
