History
Construction of Keystone Dam in the 1960s encouraged scattered settlement on the Keystone Lake peninsula. In 1976–1977, residents in southeastern Pawnee County pursued incorporation of numerous micro‑communities to prevent annexation by nearby Westport. The U.S. Census Bureau’s geographic change notes document selected legal boundary changes, including deletions of incorporated places during the 2000–2010 period; Mule Barn was deleted (dissolved) in 2008. ==Geography==
