On July 11, 1956, Lydia Street was dedicated to the memory of Lydia Groesbeeck. Gooesbeeck and Phelps also honor this early ranching family who lived at the location of these streets. Charlotte Street is named for a daughter Lydia and John Gooesbeeck. Nesblett Street is named for Charles Nesblett, mayor of Stephenville from 1916 to 1918 and chairman of the Farmers-First national Bank for forty-two years.
