SedonaThe prehistoric Hohokam and Sinagua Indians tilled the soil along Oak Creek for their corn, beans, and squash long before the white men came here. American settlers first arrived in the late 1800s to farm and run cattle in the valley. The town itself dates from 1902, when Theodore Schnebly opened a post office and named it "Sedona" after his wife. Schnebly also built a wagon road up the rim in the same year to haul vegetables and fruit to Flagstaff and lumber back to Sedona; his trips took about 11 hours each way. |
