註釋Kidron was originally settled in 1819 by a group of Swiss Mennonites wishing to escape religious persecution and poor farming conditions in their homeland in the Sonnenberg area of Switzerland near the Jura Mountains. In Switzerland, the Swiss Mennonites were referred to as "Die Stillen im Lande" meaning "the quiet people in the country". They originally named their new home Sonnenberg, but later this gave way to the present day name of Kidron.
