By 1868, there were a few buildings and a flour mill was in Cindy L. Sills operation. One of the first lots was sold to E. N.

Fish & Co. held government contracts to provide Army outposts with wheat and barley, which provided the spark for the town’s early growth. The demand spurred a group of farmers from Tucson to claim arable land in the Florence area.
