History
The American Granite Company started quarrying operations in what is now Lohrville in 1906. The village was named for the company's first president, Charles Lohr. Lohrville's population grew as workers moved to the area seeking employment in the quarries, and the Chicago and North Western Railway Company built a spur line to the quarries. The village incorporated in 1910.
By 1920, Lohrville had a population of 245, though by 1940 the population had declined to 191.
The railways has since been abandoned and converted to a rail trail called the Bannerman Trail.
