Originally named Oakdale, Texas. Oakdale is a rural community located about 4 miles northeast of Livingston. The settlement began in 1854, when pioneer Samuel E. Bigham migrated from his home in Charleston, South Carolina. Accompanioed by his family and slaves, he established a home in the oak forest, from which was later known as Oakdale. Other early settlers included the Mills, Bright, and Leggett families. The Leggetts donated land for a cemetery in Oakdale in the late 1800's, and the earliest marked grave in Leggett Cemetery is that of Jesse H.Leggett, who died in 1897.
