PROPERTY OWNERS Below is a list of property owners of the buildings that were removed by the U.S. Government when Platt National Park was established. You must remember that the land belonged to the Chickasaw Nation. The Chickasaw government decided to give the land to the Department of the Interior for use as a national park. The first move occurred in 1902 and the second in 1904. The buildings were either moved to the new site of Sulphur or were burned by the government. This list is not all inclusive and is by no means all the people that lived in Sulphur Springs. My grandfather, Allie Waggoner of Hickory, was a young cowboy. He earned $5 a week for 5 1/2 days work. When the town was moved, he told me that he and other young cowboys helped move the buildings for the astounding wage of $5 per day. The owners, listed below, of homes and businesses, opted to sell them rather than move them. |
