Bald Hill, or Baldhill,[1] is a community in
Okmulgee County,
Oklahoma.[2][3] It is located about 15 miles northeast of the
City of Okmulgee, the county seat, off of
Oklahoma State Highway 16.[4] A post office was established here in 1896, but was closed in 1908.[1] Nevertheless, the town was fueled by oil money, and had a population of 150 in 1923.[1]
Bald Hill was the location of a mansion on a high hill belonging to Enos Wilson.[1][5] Wilson was recognized in 1935 by the Superintendent of the
Five Civilized Tribes as then being the “world’s richest Indian.”[5] A paper referred to the mansion as “his famous peak castle.”[5]
