Tankersley, also known as Tankersly and MacGrath, is an unincorporated community in Tom Green County, Texas, United States. Tankersley is located on U.S. Route 67, Farm to Market Road 2335, and a BNSF Railway line in west-central Tom Green County.

History

Tankersley was named for Richard Franklin Tankersly, who donated the land for the community. A post office opened in Tankersley in 1910 and closed in 1963. The community's population reached 75 in 1946, but fell to 20 by 1953; its population remained at 20 in 1990. By 1980, the community still contained a school, a cemetery, and the West Texas Boys Ranch.[2] In 2003, a FedEx Cessna Caravan crashed on a plot of land belonging to the West Texas Boys Ranch.[3]

Education

Residents are within the San Angelo Independent School District.[4] Residents are zoned to Lamar Elementary School,[5] Glenn Middle School, and Central High School.[6]

In 1933, a school in Tankersley had 83 students and three teachers. The school was indicated in the 1936 county highway map. In the 1980s, the Tankersly–Twin Mountain School remained in the area.[2]

Residents of the West Texas Boys Ranch are enrolled in the Irion County Independent School District.[7]
