According to an article found in the Nebraska Historic Building Survey, prepared by Mead & Hunt, Inc., a man named Orin Bert Ballard established a general store and post office on his homestead east of the current location of Parks and called it Ives. The name of Parks was chosen when the railroad went through in the mid-1880s and referred to the location as "Parks".
