The town was named Joseph Knight, a minuteman in the American Revolution. Knight’s Creek, which flows into the Genesee River, near Scio, is named for him.

A member of the 3rd Battalion 7th Marines, Dunham deliberately covered an enemy grenade to protect nearby Marines, when they fell under attack at Husaybah. He was the first Marine to receive the Medal of Honor for his actions in the War on Terror, and the first Marine to receive the Medal of Honor since the Vietnam War.
