Sheffield
After Sonya Crocker's great uncle was mustered out of the Civil War, he moved west to Montana. In 1880 Crocker's great grandfather Corrydon Wilson joined him and they homesteaded near Wilson Creek. Wilson became the first postmaster of the Sadie post office that was established in 1882 in an area referred to as Sadie Bottom. The post office closed in 1909 and then the post office shifted to Calabar, a station stop on the new Montana section of the Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul Railway. The post office there had been called Lock after the first postmaster Christina Lockie. In 1929 the post office became Sheffield
The area is still home to a few large ranches like the Cross Four Ranch. Sheffield still has a place on the map although it's past, present and future isn't much different from Horton. Horton is only a few miles away on the other side of the Yellowstone River on the old Northern Pacific Railroad line still operated by Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railway.
