Mishawaka's recorded history began with the discovery of bog iron in the early 1830s. Settlers who came to mine it founded St. Joseph Iron Works in 1831, which within a few years had a blast furnace, a store, a tavern and about 200 residents. In 1833 St. Joseph Iron Works, Indiana City and two other small neighboring towns were incorporated together as Mishawaka, and its post office has operated since then. On June 27, 1859, a railroad bridge collapsed under a train carrying more than 150 people, killing 60.
In September 1872 fire destroyed three-quarters of the business district, but residents rebuilt and drew new industry, including the Dodge Manufacturing Company, Perkins Windmills and the Mishawaka Woolen and Rubber Company, later Ball Band and then Uniroyal. In the late 19th century the town's rich black soil made it known as the Peppermint Capital of the World. From 1906 to 1915 Mishawaka was the home of the luxurious American Simplex motor car. Ball Band, which made rubber goods and was hit by a major strike in 1931, flourished in the 1940s and closed in 1997 in the face of cheaper imports. Manufacturing peaked in the 1940s and then slowly declined as the economy shifted to retail and small industry. Sources Wikipedia: Mishawaka, Indiana
