Talk:Monett, Missouri

Untitled
Monett, Missouri received its present name, Monett, from the gesture of appreciation extended by town elders for the influence exerted by Mr. Henry Monett in the Union Pacific Railroad's important decision to route its transcontinental main line through the town. Competition was intense by other towns and cities to gain the railroad line through their areas. Mr. Henry Monett was then a senior manager with the Union Pacific and was presented the "Key to the City" by Monett city officials. He lived in New York City at his death in 1881. Note that the Union Pacific never built through Monett. Rather a separate company, the Union Pacific Southern Branch RR began cosntruction southwest from St. Louis. This RR later became the St. Louis & San Francisco (or Frisco). Monett was an important junction for the Frisco for many years. 216.116.87.110 17:05, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
