Early Saline County was a land rich in Native American history. Only a few settlers migrated to the area prior to the railroad development that started in 1867. Milling and grains; livestock; and even gypsum mining all influenced the growth of Saline County. Salina became a prominent city; whereas Hedville and other towns were altered; almost lost; as the railroads continued to build and change their depots; creating boom and bust economies in the county. Tornados; fires; droughts; and floods challenged the hardy souls who called this area home. Salina and the towns that have survived the booms and busts have a robust history.
