History in
a Pecan Shell
The community was
once on the Wichita Falls and Southern Railroad. It was named for
local landowner and rancher John Crittendon Bullock who donated land
for the school and station. Little history is available, but a school
was still in operation in the 30s, until the students were transferred
to Newcastle schools around 1941.
The school and railroad switch had disappeared by the mid 1960s.
