ACUFF, TEXAS is located on Farm roads 40 and 789 ten miles east of Lubbock in east central Lubbock County.  The town is said to have been named for Michael S. Acuff, who reportedly arrived in the area in February, 1891.  Other early settlers were the Thomas Acuff, L.O. Burford, and Jim Brown families.  Acuff's first school was constructed in 1902.  It was a wooden structure built from lumber hauled in from as far away as Amarillo and Big Spring.  A six-room brick schoolhouse was built in 1924, and in 1925, Acuff was designated an independent school district.  However, by 1942, the community's children were attending the Roosevelt school, and by 1947, Acuff was a part of the Roosevelt district.
