History

Stafford was founded in 1878. Like Stafford County, the city was named for Lewis Stafford, a casualty in the Civil War. Stafford was destroyed by a tornado in 1882, and rebuilt within a year. Stafford was incorporated as a city in 1885.

The Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe railroad depot, built in 1911, was slated to be demolished in late 2016 but was ultimately saved by last-minute petition from the Stafford community.
