History in
a Pecan Shell
By Carolyn
Heinsohn
Located in the southern part of Fayette
County between Holman and Ammannsville
on the north and Weimar
on the south.
A farming community that never had any businesses. Cotton
was the predominant crop until the 1950s; now ranching
is predominant. During the cotton
era, farmers hauled their cotton to the gins in Weimar
or Ammannsville;
they purchased their goods in Weimar.
Sedan Public School was operating circa 1890 to 1947 when the school
consolidated with Weimar.
Most of the residents attended churches in Weimar
with a few going to Dubina.
Some of family names of the settlers in Sedan were: Adamcik, Anders,
Banse, Buxkemper, Cernoch, Dietrich, Freis, Grohmann, Hegar, Herzik,
Hollas, Kainer, Kloesel, Labeda, Lidiak, Miska, Pavlik, Rerich and
Vornsand.
