Geographic Context: Lone Oak and McCracken County
Lone Oak is an unincorporated community and former city in McCracken County, Kentucky, located at coordinates 37°2′10″N 88°39′58″W[citation:1]. The community was originally named “Pepper’s Mill” in 1875 after Dr. W.T. Pepper, an early resident who constructed a gristmill near the intersection of Lovelaceville Road and what is now U.S. Route 45[citation:1][citation:7]. After “Pepper’s Mill” was declined as a post office name in 1900, the name “Lone Oak” was chosen due to the large oak tree that stood at the intersection[citation:1][citation:7]. The tree was cut down for a Christmas bonfire in 1903, and a historical marker now sits on the site where the tree once stood[citation:1].
The former city of Lone Oak had a population of 454 at the 2000 census, the last before its disincorporation[citation:1][citation:3].

The area of the former city is now split between the census-designated places of Hendron to the east and Massac to the west, with U.S. Route 45 (Lone Oak Road) serving as the boundary[citation:1].
