WINGO--from sign on the road "Settlement of
Northeastern Bosque County began in the 1850s, as people traveling west
through the area were attracted to the fertile lands along Cedron Creek.
Among the first community projects of the new neighbors was the construction
of a school building, a one-room structure. It was also used for
church & social gatherings. The original schoolhouse was replaced
in the 1930s by a newer structure." Like its predecessor, it
also served as a church & community center. The school was consolidated
with other area schools in 1938 & the building later was dismantled.
