Quaint Historical Setting
The original owners of the land in this area, when it was first settled, were members
of the Yoakum family, who farmed the land for many years. They also established
telephone service by running a line from Rosedale, across their land, and on to
Paoli, creating one of the first telephone companies in Oklahoma. Some of the original
poles can still be found in the area today.
Over the years, the land has had other owners, but has now been returned to the
Yoakums with the purchase by Harvey and Carol.
Paoli Area
Just outside the town limits of Paoli, Eastridge residents can enjoy being a part
of a community that’s devoted to a relaxed lifestyle and a commitment to better
living. With a long history, the Paoli area was first settled in 1874, with the
town incorporated in 1900. Settlers from Texas, Tennessee, Alabama and other points
east chose the area for its beauty and rich soils to support farming of alfalfa,
wheat, soybeans, corn, melons and sweet potatoes, which continues today.
