Allen and it was built with Union Labor The school was built out of squared sand stones that were prevalent at the time.

Introduction

I live in Dixie, Oklahoma. It is a ghost town located about 7 miles south-southeast of Cleveland, OK. This town was essentially bought out by the Army Corp of Engineers to build Keystone Lake. I have started this page as a homage to one of the residents that had lived here the longest. Mrs. Donna Batson. She passed away this morning, October 9th, 2017. She was 94 years old.
