Wealaka, Indian Territory
Wealaka was a town originally settled by Creek Indians in Indian Territory during the late 19th Century. It is now classified as a populated place by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) in southern Tulsa County, Oklahoma, though its population is not separately tabulated in the U.S. census. It is notable as the site of a Presbyterian mission and also the last home of Creek Principal Chief Pleasant Porter, who originally called the area "Fairview". 〔Bixby Historical Society."Settlers Claim Land." Retrieved April 29, 2013.()〕
==Town founding==
Wealaka was established about 1880 on a tributary of the Arkansas River, and was about northwest of the present town of Leonard, Oklahoma. The name is a Creek word meaning "Rising Water."〔Anderson, Dan. ''One Hundred Oklahoma Outlaws, Gangsters, and Lawmen, 1839-1939'' p. 12. 2007. Retrieved April 24, 2013. Available on Google Books.〕 W. L. Gilcrease, father of oilman Thomas Gilcrease, co-owner of a store and a cotton gin, platted the town and chose the name Wealaka. The second post office in the Tulsa vicinity was named Wealaka, and operated in W. T. Davis' store from 1880 to 1892. The Davis store building was razed in 1942 to make way for a landing field for Spartan School of Aeronautics.〔
