History

Peach Orchard is rooted in an estate known as “Petit Baril,” established by French explorer Pierre Le Mieux in the early 19th century. Local English-speakers were calling it “Peach Orchard” by the time Le Mieux sold the estate in 1816. A trading post operated at Peach Orchard during the mid-19th century, and was frequently raided by guerrilla forces during the Civil War.

The construction of the St. Louis, Iron Mountain and Southern Railway in the 1870s brought increased development to Peach Orchard, focused primarily on the railroad and the timber industry. A post office opened in 1873, and a depot was constructed. The city incorporated in 1910.
