TULSA, TEXAS. Tulsa was southeast of Wink in southern Winkler
County. Though the settlement was a product of the oil discovery of
July 16, 1926, in the Hendricks oilfield,qv it never boomed. A
townsite was laid out, and several buildings were erected. A Tulsa
post office opened on August 20, 1927, with Cora Higgins as
postmistress and closed in 1929, when the building was moved to
Wink. Tulsa reported two businesses in 1931 and one in 1933, when
the population was twenty-five. After 1948 the store closed, and
the community, which was named for the Oklahoma boomtown,
vanished.
Congrats to The Bolas Heathens for FTF!!!
