Hardesty, Oklahoma
Hardesty is a town in Texas County, Oklahoma, United States. As of the 2010 census, the town population was 212. History The original Hardesty was four miles northeast of the present community. It had a post office in 1887, with the name honoring A.J. “Jack” Hardesty, who had interests in the area. However, the Rock Island railroad bypassed the town in 1901 and created the locale that became Guymon, Oklahoma. Most of Hardesty’s residents and businesses relocated to Guymon, and the original town withered.

However, growth of the new Hardesty was stunted by the Great Depression and the Dust Bowl. The town nevertheless incorporated in 1947 and remains in place, complete with a post office and a school district covering 250 square miles.
