Stop Six is a neighborhood in south-east Fort Worth, Texas (USA).
[2] The neighborhood's name comes from the fact that it was once the sixth stop without an otherwise identifying landmark on the Northern Texas Traction Co. Interurban electric streetcar system that ran between Fort Worth and Dallas.
Circa 1896, Amanda Davis, the first African-American to live in the area,[3] paid a white man and obtained 1-acre (0.40 ha) of land.
Marcia Melton of Texas Christian University Magazine characterized Stop Six in its initial period as "a community of small farms and homesteads".
Area residents spent $300 to fund the construction of the school, and the Rosenwald Foundation gave $1,000 more.
