Lolaville, Texas

Lolaville was an unincorporated community in Collin County, located in the U.S. state of Texas.,[1] near the present-day border between Plano and Frisco.

It flourished in the early part of the 20th century but had all but disappeared by the late 1950s, as Texas State Highway 121 passed through the site of the community.

After subsequent road expansion required the demolition of most of the houses, all that remained was a roadside fruit stand, for which Lola only charged a pittance of rent.

[3] Lolaville was named after Lola Kelsey Dunafan, whose father owned several hundred acres in the vicinity, including the site of present-day Stonebriar Mall.

Lola's husband, Ernest, built a general store and several houses to be rented to black farming families.
