If you're interested in the history of the Old Abe references in the area, see the Jim Falls wiki page.

The settlement was first called Vermillion Falls for the color of the earth in the area. Then it was named Ermatinger Falls for James Ermatinger. Later it changed to incorporate his first name instead of his last.
