The town was named for the daughter of the first postmaster. In 1974 there was a tornado that wiped out the town. Today, it is a small community with 42 homes or roughly 126 people. There are three churches, a convenience store called "Happy Corner," and a small school of 465 students Pre-K through 12. Olive was the birthplace of Leon "Jack" Guthrie.
