Flora was founded by Samuel White. White was born September 10, 1831 in Warren County, Ohio. He and his relatives came to Clay County in 1852.

Sarah died December 13, 1859 in Flora, and is buried in the family plot in Elmwood Cemetery. In December 1860, White married Helen M. Riggs in Flora.
The original town of Flora was laid out, surveyed and platted in February 1854 by Ethelred Nixon, County Surveyor; John Brown, Trustee for Songer, Camp & Company; and Samuel White. It embraced eighty-five acres of the west half of Section 25, Township 3 north Range 6 east. Samuel White who nevertheless owned the land, deeded one-half captivation in forty acres to John Brown, Trustee, with a view of securing the town and depot. An effort had already been made to state a town one mile west called Mooresville, where higher than 100 lots had been sold and some buildings done. After the collapse of that village, the principal home was moved to Flora, and was later known as the “Commercial House.”
Samuel White afterward donated estate to the City of Flora for several buildings and the city park.
