Finding Sedona

08 Jan

I imagined the name “Sedona” as being of American Indian or Spanish origin. But actually, in the early 1900′s, a Caucasian named T.C. Schnebly petitioned the U. S. Postal Service to make a postal stop in the area. The post office needed a name and he suggested several which were rejected by the Postmaster General for they were too long. His brother suggested using T.C.’s wife’s name. Fortunately, she had a lovely name – Sedona.
