MARYLAND LeFlore Co. DEAD NAME
The town of Maryland sprang up next to the original site of McNutt and over the years was renamed Schlater in honor of the Schlater family who donated a large tract of land to the town so it could be incorporated. The town of Schlater is small, but supports 2 cotton gins, a post office and a couple of convenience stores. Most of the older people are now gone and the young folks are moving away.
Schlater had 388 people in 2000, so it is not considered a ghost town for this work.
