52 Towns In Alfalfa County...

My sister-in-law Mary Erskine had collected some information on the towns in Alfalfa County in her research for the Woods County Genealogists. On her retirement she gave me the material. I decided to organize it and have been adding to it. I have started a book about The 52 Towns in Alfalfa County. I found in the Town and Place Locations book by Oklahoma Department of Highways, 52 towns in the county. Some had several names over the years but I am trying to complete this thanks to newspaper articles and other resources. The definition I find is that anywhere there was a a postoffice it was considered a town. Most postoffices were in general stores in the early days. Towns seem to survive wherever there was a railroad. I will be glad to send information to you or anyone else that is looking for towns. I found several towns with different names at some time in history.

Alvaretta, Oklahoma...

Alvaretta was a town in Section 10-23N-9WIM. It was 3 miles south of Goltry. In 1894 a large store was owned by Matthew W. Wrigley and the town was named for his daughter, Alvaretta Wrigley. The lumberyard owner was Charles Coulter (Wrigley's son-in-law). The postoffice was organized 22 March 1894 with postmaster Matthew Wrigley and closed on 29 Sept. 1904. There was a Masonic Lodge organized in 1896 there. The Blacksmith shop was run by Jack O'Connor. There were churches inAlvaretta and Karoma which united with the Congregational Church of Goltry when the town mvoed to Goltry.
