History

The city was first settled circa 1872 when the St. Louis, Iron Mountain and Southern Railroad built its tracks approximately one mile southeast of Old Austin. Many residents of Old Austin moved near the railroad tracks, in some cases uprooting and transporting entire buildings. The new city forming near the tracks was originally known as “Austin Station” to distinguish it from the original Austin, but eventually became known as Austin while the old community became known as “Old Austin”.
