Brief History from
wikipedia:
Coffey County was organized as
one of the original 33 counties created by
the Territorial Legislature. The initial
boundaries
were established by the legislature on
July 22, 1855, and the county was organized
on February 17, 1857. The county contains
the cities of Burlington, Gridley,
Lebo, New Strawn and Waverly. The county was
named for Colonel A. M. Coffey, a resident
of Miami County, and member of the
Territorial Legislature.
