Wellston was named after Christian T. Wells, who opened a trading post here in the Kickapoo Indian Reservation in 1883. In 1933, Route 66 was straightened, so that the town lost its direct connection to the main road. They even went to the Supreme Court - to no avail. It was surprising that even in 1933 the need for through traffic was recognized.
