Bancroft County, Iowa, was a county located in what today is the northern portion of Kossuth County. The county was established in 1851 by the Iowa General Assembly, but then abolished six years later. The area was joined to Kossuth County, leading to it being roughly twice the size of adjacent counties. The reason that it became a part of Kossuth County was because the area was wetland, consequently making it unsuitable for farming. Now, only a small amount of the wetlands remain, mostly at the Union Slough National Wildlife Refuge. The remainder of the land is arable by modern farming standards.
