Founded in 1762, the settlement of Groenveld consolidated surrounding Dutch-Amerikaens settlements into a more easily defensible and centerized location after the 1762 charter of the Mississippi settler colony. Owing to it's location in the center of Mississippi Groenveld rapidly grow in importance and by the turn of the 19th century it was the premier Dutch settlement west of Daesemus and the heart of the Mississippi colony In the 19th century Groenveld became an important stop in many of the Boer-trails from NNL and Mississippi towards the newly formed Voortrekker republics. After the 1850 Dutch-Spanish War, further investment in the region to protect the heart of the Tussenland colony, migration of Suyderlings from former South Tussenland, creation of the Tussenland railroad system and further expeditions and settlements into western Tussenland cemented the role of Groenveld as a regional administrative hub for Mississippi. By the turn of the 20th century, Groenveld lost it's position as the largest cities in Mississippi to Krusdorp in the west who grew as the "Gateway to Westerzee". in the 20th century after advances in industrialized farming and agriculture central Mississippi become of the great breadbaskets of North America and Groenveld has become an important distribution hub for farmers throughout Mississippi.
