Kilgore Texas Transforms From Slugging Oil Village
Kilgore Texas grew from a rough oil patch into an enterprising town of about 15,000 after three years of oil field development. The era saw rapid traffic, crowded sidewalks, and bustling commerce with 60 refineries, 66 pipelines, 19 treating plants, and 13 casing plants. Oil field stats show 12,000 wells completed by 1929, production near 400,000 barrels daily with potential to rise, and 40,000 workers tied to the field. Kilgore honors Congressman C B Buck Kilgore, who served 1887-92.
