COMMENTS: 61st and Mingo area now in Tulsa city limits. About 50 residents or less. City of Tulsa built over much of it. Old Houses in area some of which were moved from the construction of Hillcrest Hospital.
REMAINS: Old school and at least three old churches. Some houses
Unsure of incorporation date but school building had a date of 1934 I think. Area in decline from the late Sixties. Others know much more about this town. I moved there in 77' and finished High school.The old general store was still open then but has been rebuilt into several other things since. Names in area were Christian, Hooper, Christiansen, Goodnight,Crawford,Lee,Capps and Cox. Most people left as the city of Tulsa encroached. No city sewer was provided and houses are generally abandoned as owners die off. one mile south of Alsuma, another Ghost town. Submitted by: Steve Wirth
