Thomas Madison Smith was the only postmaster for the Sheffield Post Office starting from February 1, 1893, until January 2, 1907, when the post office was discontinued. The post office was also a store supposedly built before 1894. Where the name came from has apparently been lost to history. A mercantile was opened in 1948 by Wade and JT Smith, along with a furniture and upholstery business.
