History
The Dallasfield State Correctional Facility
Dallasfield was founded in February 1821 and named "Dallas's Field" after explorer Jordson Dallas. It was incorporated in 1831 as "Dallasfield". The Dallasfield State Correctional Facility was constructed in the 1850s on property located at 6676 Jordson Dallas Road. Toward the end of the nineteenth century (around 1897), Dallasfield was re-classified as a city. On March 12, 1892, a storm passed through the then-town and damaged businesses on the west side of town. No deaths were reported. During the 1980s, Dallasfield underwent a "revitalization project" that saw a "beautification" of the downtown area and the installation of new street lights, as well as banners advertising what the city had to offer.
