Smithville was formed in 1838 and was named in honor of Samuel Granville Smith, and that was when the railroad came through the land. There was a vote that was held in 1859 about where the courthouse would be located in Smithville. When the railroad company relocated, they left behind some of their equipment, which is now used as an “antique car museum” in the county fairgrounds area. The town’s name came from its founder named Smith, who named it after his father, Smith Miller. Smithville is home to the Smithville Tigers, who play in the Southwestern Athletic Conference.
