History
Stavely was named for Alexander Staveley Hill, managing director of the Oxley Ranching Company that was founded in 1882 by John R Craig on 100,000 acres of grazing rights. The Canadian Pacific Railway once ran through the town. Its closure led to the removal of all but one of Stavely's grain elevators.
