About Shamrock, Oklahoma

Shamrock is a town of 65 people in Creek County, south of Drumright on State Highway 16. James M. Thomas came here from Shamrock, Illinois, in 1908 and opened a store. When he set up a post office on July 9, 1910, he gave it the name of his hometown.

Between 1915 and 1916 a rail line was built north from Depew, but it passed three quarters of a mile from the settlement, so the townspeople moved their businesses over to the tracks. The Shamrock Townsite Company sold its first lot in November 1915, and a Santa Fe line to Drumright followed in 1916. With two railroads, Shamrock became a busy shipping point for crude oil and oil field equipment.

“Shamrock is on the map to stay and the Brogue is here to boost for the town. The Brogue will never knock.”

  • St. Patrick's Day, 1916On March 17, 1916, about five thousand people came for Shamrock's first St. Patrick's Day celebration. To mark the day, an 11,500 pound sandstone was cut from a bluff on Spring Creek, about five miles south of town, and made into a blarney stone. The town carried its Irish theme into its street names, too: Tipperary, Dublin, Killarney, Blarney and Cork.
  • An oil boomtownWhen the nearby Cushing Oil Field opened, oil camps grew around Shamrock, filling the town with saloons, gambling halls and brothels. One night the oilmen Tom Slick and Harry Sinclair, after a few drinks, raced horse teams down the main street. At the Big Six gambling hall, a one-legged fiddler kept order by swinging his wooden leg as a club. By the mid-1920s the boom had ended, its workers had moved on, and the population began to fall.
  • Two papers in 1916The Shamrock Brogue printed its first issue on January 1, 1916, and the Shamrock Blarney followed on March 9, 1916. Both were later replaced by the Creek County Democrat, which was still being published on January 23, 1930.
  • Pretty Boy Floyd in 1932Even after the boom faded, Shamrock still had a bank worth robbing, and in 1932 Pretty Boy Floyd held it up. The town government lasted until June 2010, when its board of trustees voted to dissolve it.
