The population was 1,039 at the 2000 census. HistoryAccording to The Handbook of Texas, the area where the town is now located was once on land granted to the county in 1892 by the 77 Ranch, owned by S.B. Wilson and Wilson Furneaux.[2] The town developed in 1917-18 with a hotel and service from the Santa Fe railroad, which had built a branch line from Lubbock, Texas to Texico, New Mexico, in 1913. The land company manager and first postmaster, P.E. Boesen, suggested the town's name in 1918. A gin was built in 1922 and a bank established a year later. The town was incorporated in 1925, when the population was 600, up from a population of only fifteen in 1920. The first of several grain elevators was also erected in 1925 and the Sudan News began publication. The population was 1,014 in 1930, 1,336 in 1950, 976 in 1970, and 1,091 in 1980.
