I would be interested in finding out how the name of Shingleton came to be the name of your town. Is it named for someone and if so why and when. I have Shingletons in my family and the name certainly is not common. Any information any one could give me would be greatly appreciated. It would be more appreciated if you could send it to me at 1605 Hiawatha Trail, Kingsland, Texas 78639. Is there a Historical Society or something similar there in Shingleton? Thanks.
