Wellston, Oklahoma, is a small town located just north of Route 66 in western Lincoln County. The town started in about 1880 when a man named Christian T. Wells established a trading post in the northern part of the Kickapoo Reservation. Several years later, Wells established a post office on September 19, 1884, and served as the first postmaster.
