Charter Oak had its start ca. 1900 when the railroad was extended to that point.[2] The community took its name from the Charteroak Land and Lumber Company.[2] A post office called Charteroak was established in 1902, and remained in operation until 1957.[3]
gollark: Muskies appear to be losing their perceived rarity. I saw one sit in the desert. It took about ten-twenty seconds after the egg drop to go.
gollark: Why did everyone just move to alpine/volcano? Weird.
gollark: It's possible that some of this perceived rarity is just a feedback loop of "hmm, people think it's rare, better try and get better offers" and "hmm, people think it's rare, better offer more".
gollark: Aaanad now I just saw - and missed - a Zyumorph due to wiki-checking what it was. Yay...
gollark: I wonder why that is.
