Town's Rich History

Historical Photo of Main Street

The Town of Westport was founded on March 23, 1836. As there were only twenty lots in the original plat, the town itself was very small. However, nearly all of the land in Decatur County had been purchased by that time. It is one thing to talk about Westport as a town, but quite another to talk about it as a community. There were many people living nearby in 1836, but not in the actual town.
