姆德瓦卡顿达科他是最早通过明尼苏达河来到这里的居民, following water fowl and game animals. 作为Mdewakanton人从他们的祖先在Mille Lacs湖附近的地区迁移到明尼苏达河和密西西比河的汇合处的一部分, Chief Black Dog, around 1750, 在黑狗湖和明尼苏达河之间的地峡的一个永久村庄建立了他的乐队, near the present site of the Black Dog Power Plant. 据早期定居者报告,这个永久营地居住着250多名达科他人. At the south end of Burnsville, Crystal Lake, recorded as "Minne Elk" was utilized for abundant fish, leisure and burial. 这也是一个聚集的地方,达科他从巴克山的山顶观看鹿或雄鹿在湖边饮水, in which was named by early settlers who witnessed this activity. 欧洲人定居后,发现了三个大型墓葬冢.
达科他州在1851年割让了土地,许多人搬到了酋长Shakopee的村庄——现在的Shakopee- mdewakanton印第安人保留区附近的普勒尔湖. The first European settlers were Irish, Scottish and Norwegian farmers who came upriver from Saint Paul. One of these Irish settlers was William Byrne, who had immigrated in 1840 from County Kilkenny, Ireland to Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. In 1855, 他定居在今天的34号县公路和司法公路的交界处,靠近斯科特县线, just southeast of old downtown Savage. He subsequently donated land there for a church, school, and a cemetery as well as serving Town Chairman. In 1858, 达科他县委员会批准了位于明尼苏达河以北的伯恩斯维尔镇, east by Eagan and Apple Valley, south by Lakeville, and west by Scott County. 由于该地区居住着姓“伯恩斯”的人,所以这个名字是否来源于威廉·伯恩还存在一些不明确的地方.城镇办事员记录了“伯恩斯”和“伯恩斯”之间的变化,但在20世纪60年代的城市合并, the "Burnsville" spelling prevailed. The school district was organized during this time as well. 伯恩斯维尔最初是由现在的萨维奇市中心组成,直到县边界修订立法机关. 这一时期的爱尔兰和苏格兰定居者在许多地区的道路和公园上留下了他们的名字,并在长老会留下了他们的宗教信仰, Protestant, and Catholic churches.
