Mina, South Dakota


Mina is an unincorporated community in Edmunds County, in the U.S. state of South Dakota.

A post office called Mina was established in 1909, and remained in operation until 1983. The community most likely was named after Mina Erling, the daughter of a railroad official.

In 1999, a Learjet carrying PGA golfer Payne Stewart and five other people (including two pilots and three passengers) crashed in a field about a mile south of Mina, killing all six people.
