History on a Pinhead
Settled
in the last quarter of the 19th the community had enough people to justify a post
office in 1892 – even though it only lasted about 20 years.
Life around
Ola was quiet and from 72 residents in 1900 it dipped to a mere 30 for the 1910
census. It reported 72 again from 1930 through the mid 1960s when it fell again.
From 1970 to 2000 the estimated population has been 50.
A
Visit to Ola: Photographer's
Note:
Not much here.
One business, one church. Church Of Christ with an apparent old and new building.
One cemetery with a type of fencing that I had never seen before with names in
each section. - Mike
