History

The community of Bula was established in 1924 and originally given the name Newsome. Due to a conflict with another Texas post office with the same name, the name was changed to Bula in 1925.[3] Bula had a school in 1925 and a cotton gin in 1929, but never grew significantly. By 1980, the population had risen to only 105, then dropped to 35 in 2000.[3]
