History
Founded in 1907 along the Kansas City, Mexico and Orient Railway (and currently along the route of the Texas and Oklahoma Railroad), the community was named for one or more people; the source of its name is disputed. In its early history, the community was more significant than it is today: it won a significant minority of the votes in an election (losing to Sweetwater) to determine the county seat, and a post office was established in Maryneal by being moved from Decker.
