History

This rural area was a center of cotton production into the early 20th century.

The community was named for Roy Megargel, who was the owner of the Gulf, Florida, and Alabama Railroad (GFA) in the early part of the 20th century. He initially got the town of Jones Mill (known today as Frisco City) to agree to change their name to Roy in 1913 on the condition he construct a rail line to the town. When he failed to do so, the town reverted to its old name in 1919.
