History

Angola was laid out in 1886.[1] The post office was established January 31, 1887, and discontinued September 16, 1971. The community was served by the Missouri-Kansas-Texas Railroad for many years, however flooding on the Verdigris River washed out the railroad bridge in the 1970s and rail traffic was thereafter re-routed, no longer passing through Angola.

gollark: School can make *any* book extremely boring!
gollark: Many servers I'm on have Discord bridges, it's common.
gollark: Yes, I'm actually browsing through an experimental Minecraft/Discord bridge.
gollark: Oh, the meme is "understanding", not "comprehension".
