}}Longdale is a town in northwestern Blaine County, Oklahoma, United States. The population was 262 at the 2010 census, down 18.3 percent from 310 in the 2000 census.[3]

History

The town was named for Lucious Walter Long, the husband of Carrie M. Millerman, who had obtained a homestead in the Cheyenne-Arapaho Opening of April 19, 1892. The two married and made her homestead the town site. They donated {{convert|160|acres|ha}} on the north side of their property to the Union Real Estate and Townsite Company, while retaining the southern side themselves, which they divided into residential and commercial lots. The Longs wanted to name their new community Longview, but agreed to change to Longdale to avoid confusion with the already existing community of Fairview.[3]

Historians have sometimes confused Longdale with Cainville. The latter was {{convert|2|miles|km}} north of Longdale, and already had a post office, where the residents of Longdale could receive their mail. The Cainville post office was discontinued and moved to Longdale on November 28, 1903, with Robert L. Eaton as the new postmaster. On October 23, 1903, G. W. published the first edition of his newspaper, the Longdale Register. The Longs already had sold part of their property to the Kansas City, Mexico and Orient Railway, which finally reached Longdale on June 10, 1905.[3]

Carrie Millerman became the first teacher when a school opened November 30, 1894, in a temporary location {{convert|2|miles|km}} north of Longdale. A new school building opened in Longdale on November 5, 1906, replacing the temporary facility. By the first census in 1910, Longdale had a population of 296.[3]

Education

Longdale School, which closed in 1991, was home to the world-famous "Longdale Redmen". The Redmen were widely known throughout both hemispheres for the successful sports teams fielded throughout the 20th Century. In 1991, the Longdale Redmen celebrated their tenth consecutive National Kickball Championship. The 1990-91 teams also captured championships in basketball (Greenfield Tournament, Progressive Tournament, Canton Tournament and Hitchcock Tournament), flag football (National 8th Grade Champions), cross-country, 4-Square, 500, Heads-Up 7-Up, and wiffleball. As Longdale continues to grow throughout the 21st century the city is being overflowed with many successful businesses. Longdale's growing population had become a concern. The population of Longdale has grown to over 100 people and the housing can not keep up with the major climb in population.
