a Pecan Shell
Imogene was one
of three towns named after the daughters of developer Charles F. Simmons.
The other two are Charlotte and
Christine
It had a post office for less than a year. Although census figures
aren't available, there were 49 students enrolled in Imogene's school
in 1934.
During WWII,
the Humble Oil Company built a housing development for its employees
there, but Imogene was dropped from maps sometime in the 1980s.
