Tallapoosa was formed about 1901 by the junction of the St. Louis, Morehouse and Southern Railroad and the Clarkton Branch of the St. Louis, Kennett and Southern Railroad. Louis Houck was in charge of construction of both lines. The town was apparently named after Tallapoosa, Georgia. Houck was involved in correspondence with a Mr. Sturdivant at the time of the construction of these lines who lived in Tallapoosa, Georgia. A railroad section house was built at this location.
