Charles F McClarty was a lawyer, served in the 1st Texas Legislature in 1846, served as a private in the 2nd Reg't, Texas Mounted Volunteers during the Mexican War, was Postmaster of Henderson 22 Dec 1851. He was a merchant in Old London and owned lots in Anadarko. In March, 1852, Edward Vinzent, gave to Obdiah Belcher "all the houses, lots and gardens belonging to the mills rent-free, if Belcher would run a Steam Engine on the premises. (Rusk Co. Deed Records, Vol. G, p 80). This is as close as we can come to the origins of London. On Jan. l, 1856, Belcher sold two lots, "being the same on which I reside and have a Steam mill," to Charles F. McClarty, son of Samuel McClarty of Henderson. McClarty's store and stable were something of a landmark in early London. The McClarty lot is frequently mentioned in the Deed Records.
