HISTORY by Tony Howe: 

McClures was first listed in railroad timetables as a flag stop in March 1889. A post office was established here as McClure in August 1888. The first postmaster was William F. McClure. An 85-car siding was first listed here in May 1893. The post office closed in 1892. The railroad renamed the location to Tyler in the August 1903 timetable.
