History
Mound City was originally called North Point, and under the latter name was platted on October 31, 1856. The present name is after mounds near the original town site. A post office called North Point was established in 1855, and the name was changed to Mound City in 1871. Mound City was incorporated in 1873. Jackson's Point, which was founded in 1840 at the confluence of the north and south forks of Davis Creek, was absorbed into Mound City in the 19th Century. The railroad finally reached Mound City in 1880.
