Where Does Gassville Get its Name? At the Gassville Centennial in June 2003, Joyce Acklin, a
direct descendant of Mr. P.A. Cox related the story of how Gassville got
its name. A post office was established in the town in 1878 with P.A. Cox
as the postmaster. He was an incessant talker and was referred to by
others as a "gasser" which eventually led to the town's name.
This is the only Gassville in the United States. Gassville formally became
a town in 1903. (From Baxter Bulletin newspaper 6/16/2003.) |
