In the 1870's George Hall settled the area and opened a store.
In 1879 a new Post Office was built and named after the storekeeper. During the early years of Route 66,Halltown had 3 grocery stores, 1 drugstore, 1 variety store, 1 blacksmith shop and 1 garage.
After W.W. II, the town expanded to 15 to 20 businesses to accommodate the traveler.
Today Halltown still has a few surviving businesses and has become a wonderful place for the antique hunter.
They have all kinds of rare goodies to find in the Store.
Make it a stop on your trip down Historic 66 you never know what you might find.
