History
Oenaville began when C.D. Johnson opened a store on Big Elm Creek in the late 1860s. A post office was established at Oenaville in 1872. Johnson named the community Oenaville, most likely after Oena Griffin. The community had 150 residents served by three churches, two mills and gins, two saloons, and a cooperative association in 1884. Cotton was the most common crop shipped in the community. The population grew to 200 in 1890 and remained there through the 1940s. It returned to 150 residents, with five businesses and two churches in 1949. All the businesses closed, and Oenaville reported a population of 120 from 1990 through 2000.[2]
