The
story of Buckhead,

Buckhead was
a small
community in the
far southeastern
Cleveland
County, Oklahoma
Territory.
Though it
consisted of
only a handful
of businesses,
it was a
thriving
community with a
large
population. So
many people
moved to that
area that
eventually the
county assigned
an additional
school there
just for the
residents:
Buckhead School.
