History in
a Pecan Shell
Rancher
W. A. McCoy donated a right-of-way to the San Antonio, Uvalde and
Gulf Railroad in 1913 and a post office was granted the following
year. The 1914 Census was 70. A school was built sometime prior to
1920 which expanded from two to four rooms for its 173 students (1935).
The town was down to a single business by 1933 and the school was
consolidated in 1950. From 1945 through the early 1990s, McCoy reported
a population of only 25. |
