History

Iowa Park was founded in 1888 alongside the tracks of the Fort Worth and Denver City Railway by D. C. and A. J. Kolp. Originally called Daggett Switch, it soon became a shipping point for cotton and wheat. Hard times came in the early 1890s when a drought hit, but by 1900, the town had a significant population.

The population fell during the early part of the century, but an oil discovery in 1918 reversed the dip. By 1926, the population was staying higher. A concrete highway connecting Iowa Park with Wichita Falls was built in 1927. In the mid-1930s, Iowa Park maintained its population, while most other towns declined.

Sheppard Air Force Base provided a minor drawback in the 1950s, but by the end of the decade, the population was still holding up. The late 1960s brought two state football championships and a 20% growth in population which continued into the ’70s.
