Tidbits of History – Tekoa (Tee’ Koh)

In 1875, a lone settler opened a trading post at Tekoa, to serve a nearby reservation in Coeur d’alene, Idaho. Daniel Truax, a sawmill operator who learned that the railroad was coming- and therefore platted a town, joined him. Looking over the construction camp, Mrs. Truax suggested the name Tekoa, a biblical term meaning City of Tents. In 1888, the railroad became reality and built a round house, machine shop, coal bunker, and district administration headquarters. This created jobs for one out of every four households.

Tekoa was on the main line to Spokane, therefore, it thrived as a grain and apple-shipping center. In 1908 The Milwaukee Railroad laid its transcontinental rails through the town; this further contributed to Tekoa’s prosperity. One of the region's first cold storage and seed pea operations developed creating employment for about 50 women, who sorted and packaged locally grown peas and peas shipped in from California.

By 1920, the railroads dominance began to decline. In 1950, the Milwaukee had dropped its Tekoa operations and the Union Pacific moved its crew to Spokane. The railroad still moves grains and agricultural chemicals through Tekoa, but now the old Union Pacific depot is a farm store and the large steel train trestle mainly symbolizes the community's former dependence on the railroad.
