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. |
