In the late 1800's it hosted two schools, several churches, and a population up to 1,000. The close proximity to the oilfields south in Oklahoma City and the new State Capitol in Guthrie made it almost like a boom town. Farming was the main attraction due to the sandy loam and influx of many land hungry immigrants. Submitted by: Douglas L. Fisher
