'''Kellyville''' is a town in [[Creek County, Oklahoma|Creek County]], [[Oklahoma]], United States. The population was 1,019 at the 2020 census.<ref>{{cite web|url= https://www.census.gov/search-results.html?searchType=web&cssp=SERP&q=Kellyville%20town,%20Oklahoma|title=Kellyville (town), Oklahoma|publisher=United States Census Bureau|accessdate=August 13, 2023}}</ref>

==History==
Kellyville was named for James E. Kelly, who established a local [[trading post]] in 1892 and opened a post office on November 27, 1893.  The [[St. Louis and Oklahoma City Railroad]]—later merged into the [[St. Louis and San Francisco Railway]] ("Frisco")-- built a line through Kellyville in 1898.<ref name="EOHC-Kellyville">Wilson, Linda D. ''Encyclopedia of Oklahoma History and Culture''. "Kellyville" Retrieved March 23, 2012.[http://digital.library.okstate.edu/encyclopedia/entries/K/KE004.html] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120311040957/http://digital.library.okstate.edu/encyclopedia/entries/K/KE004.html |date=March 11, 2012 }}</ref>

Oklahoma's worst train disaster took place just west of Kellyville on September 28, 1917, when two Frisco trains collided. Twenty-three people were killed and eighty injured. It remains one of the country's bloodiest train wrecks due to the large number of cattle deaths.

Oil and gas were discovered nearby in 1915. This created a population boom and attracted construction of a [[The Refinery|refinery]] in Kellyville. By 1930, the population was 548. Although oil and gas production waned, population continued to grow. Now, a significant number of employed residents commute to jobs in [[Sapulpa, Oklahoma|Sapulpa]] and [[Tulsa, Oklahoma|Tulsa]].<ref name="EOHC-Kellyville"/>  However, Webco Industries has become a major local employer, having opened a corrosion-resistant alloy plant in Kellyville in 2008 which produces specialty nickel alloy and stainless tubing.<ref name=Webco>{{cite web|url= https://www.webcotube.com/webco-a-forever-kind-of-company/history/ |title=History|publisher=Webco Industries|access-date=July 24, 2020}}</ref>  The plant was significantly expanded in 2018.<ref name=Webco />

In the early 1970s, there were plans to build a ski resort in Kellyville — Oklahoma's first — using artificial snow, but the idea was short-lived due to the region's climate.<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://tatur.org/KellyvilleAidStation.html |title=Kellyville Aid Station |access-date=February 18, 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131012053615/http://tatur.org/KellyvilleAidStation.html |archive-date=October 12, 2013 |url-status=dead }}</ref>
