History
The Early Years of Longview
1870-1871: The initial site of Longview was laid out on the western outskirts of Earpville, an early community in what was then Upshur County along the old Marshall-Tyler Road (today known as U.S. 80). Earpville (sounds like "Arpville") was founded around 1850 by James Earp. It consisted of a few farmhouses, a post office, a stagecoach stop and had one blacksmith shop. There was also a church and one or two stores. After the Civil War, the Southern Pacific railroad began to expand toward California from its terminus at Marshall. The Southern Pacific bought a 100-acre tract in April 1870 from farmer 0. H. Methvin, for one gold dollar promising to lay out a town site on the land in advance of track construction. The name "Longview," is said to be suggested by a railroad surveyor who was inspired by the scenic view from the porch Methvin's home atop Rock Hill. The name Longview was also intended to imply farsighted plans.
1872-1874: The Southern Pacific bought another 50 acres from 0. H. Methvin for a reported $500 to extend its town site further west. The Longview Post Office was established Jan. 27, 1871. On Feb. 22 that year, commercial train service began at Longview with great celebration. The track ended at a locomotive turntable between Center and High streets. In May 5, 1871, the one-square-mile town of Longview was incorporated.
1872-1874: Longview received nationwide recognition during the time it was the head of the nation's Southern rail line. Because Longview was the colses rail access to much of the region, business, population, and construction grew and expanded fuled by wagon traffic coming to Longview from a wide area. The International Railroad Co. was attracted to Longview and established a new track which crossed the Southern Pacific track about 600 feet east of the city limits. Now the "Downtown Station" had a companion "Junction Station." The Texas & Pacific - which had acquired the Southern Pacific by federal edict - began laying track westward toward Dallas. With the Texas & Pacific joined by what would become the International & Great Northern railroads made Longview the commercial center for northeast Texas.
