History
in a Pecan Shell
From a small school started in the late 1880s, a community developed. History
is scare from the first four decades, but when oil was discovered in the 1930s,
White Oak was firmly established – despite its proximity to Kilgore.
Unlike many Texas towns – White Oak’s
population increased after WWII.
The early 1960s showed 1,250 residents which ballooned to over 5,000 for the 1990
census.
It is now considered an extention of Longview
with a 2000 population of 5,624. | |
