History

Although there were bands of Shawnee in the vicinity of Sedalia when the land was first settled by Americans, historians believe the entire area was first occupied by the Osage (of historical American Indian tribes).^[5] This article is about the Native American tribe. ... The Osage are American Indian People of the central Midwest. ... Note that this classification is now considered incorrect and should not be used in everyday writing. ...

The area that became Sedalia was founded by General George Rappeen Smith (1804-1879), who went on to found nearby Smithton, Missouri. He filed plans for the official record on 30 November 1857, and gave the area the name Sedville.^[6] Smithton is a city located in Pettis County, Missouri. ...

The original plat included the land from today's Missouri Pacific Railroad south to Third Street. In addition, the version filed jointly by General Smith and David W. Bouldin (?-1893) on 16 October 1860, displayed the city spreading from Clay Street to the north and to Smith Street (i.e., today's Third Street) in the south, and from Missouri Street in the west to Washington Street in the east. Smith and Bouldin anticipated that the city would grow North; however, it grew South.^[7] Missouri Pacific (MoPac; AAR reporting mark MP) was one of the first railroads in the United States west of the Mississippi River. ...

Name

Until it was incorporated in 1860 as Sedalia, the city had only existed "on paper" (i.e., from 30 November 1857 to 16 October 1860). Both Sedville and Sedalia were named after Smith's daughter, Sarah "Sed" Smith Cotton. According to local lore, the town council changed the name from Sadieville to Sedalia in part because "towns that end in -ville don't amount to anything." (Lawrence Ditton, Sr.).

In 1856 General Smith bought the land upon which Sedalia now stands, and founded the city. The name was derived from that of his daughter Sarah, familiarly known as "Sed". He remarked that he had previously named a flatboat for her elder sister Martha. The name he chose was that of Sedville. He changed this to Sedalia,^[8] following the suggestion of a friend, Josiah Dent, of St. Louis, who proposed Sedalia, closely resembling the Latin word Sedilia, meaning a seat, at the same time remarking that the change would be desirable for the reason the "General Smith designed the removal of the county seat to the new town." The slight change from the proposed word was made for the sake of euphony.^[9]

Growth

Sedalia had a population of around 300 people in 1860, and what Ihrig et al. (1960 p.12) describe as a "bona fide population" of around 1,000 in 1865.^[10] Image File history File links Metadata Size of this preview: 800 × 574 pixelsFull resolution (2640 × 1893 pixel, file size: 1. ...

According to Ihrig et al., (1960 p.123) Sedalia's population grew as follows:

• 1870: 4,560
• 1880: 9,561
• 1890: 14,068
• 1900: 15,231
• 1910: 17,8221

• 1930: 20,806
• 1940: 20,428
• 1950: 20,354
• 1960: 28,000-30,000 (estimated)^[11]

Railhead

Following a victory for those proposing the "ridge route" for the railway over those advocating the "river route", the railway reached Sedalia in January 1861.^[12] Sedalia's early prosperity was directly related to the railroad industry. Many jobs were associated with maintaining tracks and machine shops for the Missouri Pacific and the Missouri-Kansas-Texas Railroad lines. The Missouri-Kansas-Texas Railroad was most widely known as the "KATY", from its "K-T" stock exchange code. Missouri Pacific (MoPac; AAR reporting mark MP) was the first American railroad west of the Mississippi River. ... The Missouri-Kansas-Texas Railroad (known as the MKT, or Katy) began as the Union Pacific Railway, Southern Branch (unrelated to the Union Pacific Railroad) in 1865. ...

The KATY trail is the nickname of the 225-mile-trail following the railroad right-of-way through much of Missouri, a successful project of "Rails to Trails" project.

A Texas Longhorn

Sedalia was also an important railhead for the Texas cattle drive of 1866. A Railhead is a terminus of a railway line that interfaces with another tranport mode, for example shipping. ...

Chicago slaughterhouses were willing to pay almost any price [for beef] — longhorns were worth three to four dollars each on the Llano Estacado while in Chicago a steer was worth ten times that amount. It cost about a dollar per head to drive a herd northward to a railroad, and thus with these simple economics, the long drive and the cattle bonanza got its start. During the spring and summer of 1866, some 260,000 head followed the trail to Sedalia, Missouri, the terminus of the Missouri Pacific Railway." (McComb, 1989, p.84).

Civil War

Sedalia was made a military post early in the war and remained such until its close in 1865. For this reason it was an active theatre of operations for military supplies and an objective point for capture by "the boys in gray". Confederate raids into Pettis County, and the offensive and defensive activities of Union troops against them, kept the inhabitants of Sedalia in [a] high state of excitement and the progress of the city was retarded [during that time]. Sentiment in the county was about evenly divided.^[13] A group of Confederate soldiers The Confederate States Army (CSA) was organized in February 1861 to defend the newly formed Confederate States of America from military action by the United States government during the American Civil War. ... Pettis County is a county located in the state of Missouri. ... The 21st Michigan Infantry, a company of Shermans veterans. ...

During the Civil War, despite the presence of the Union soldiers guarding the railroad, Sedalia was almost taken by the Confederate forces of Major General Sterling Price. Some 1,500 of Shelby’s "Iron Brigade" cavalry associated with Price's Missouri Expedition surrounded Sedalia, overpowered the Union militia that were under the command of Colonel John D. Crawford and Lieutenant Colonel John [?D.] Parker, and began to loot and sack the town on 15 October 1864.^[14] Once Confederate General M. Jeff Thompson arrived in Sedalia, he ordered his men to stop the destruction, and moved them on, leaving Sedalia once again in Union hands.^[15] General Price Sterling Old Pap Price (September 20, 1809 – September 29, 1867) was an antebellum politician from the U.S. state of Missouri and a Confederate major general during the American Civil War. ... Joseph O. Shelby Joseph Orville (Jo) Shelby (December 12, 1830 – February 13, 1897) was a Confederate cavalry general in the Trans-Mississippi Theater of the American Civil War. ... The Iron Brigade was an infantry brigade in the Union Army during the American Civil War, consisting primarily of Western regiments, that was noted for its ability to withstand almost any fire, and its regiments combined took the highest casualty percentage of the war. ... Meriwether Jeff Thompson (January 22, 1826 – September 5, 1876) was a brigadier general in the Missouri State Guard during the American Civil War. ...

While the Civil War delayed the building of the town, it also meant that Sedalia had been the terminus of the railroad for three years. Once the war was over, many of the thousands of Union soldiers who had been stationed more or less permanently at Sedalia during the war, and who had soon recognized its potential, made the choice to migrate to Sedalia from their pre-war homes in other locations across the United States.^[16]
