Flo, Texas

Flo, which has been named many different names including Kidd's Mill, Wheelock, Bethlehem, Oneta, New Hope, Oden, Odens, Flo's Folly, Lone Star, and Midway, was founded by Thaddeus Kidd in 1855, well before the American Civil War, where he founded and built a mill.

The town was changed to Flo, the name it is known to locals today (if there is any), where it had the same ladder post office until 1930.

Today any mail that goes to the Flo area is managed by the postmasters of the nearby town of Buffalo.

[2][3] The traces of the fine education system in Flo, Texas can be traced back to the years before the Civil War (Probably when or shortly after Mr. Kidd founded the town), back when the town was known as Kidd's Mill.

Today the town of Flo is served by the Buffalo Independent School District, although one source claims Oakwood Independent School District picks up students in the area.
