The name is derived either from that of a local candy bar or from the local people's saying it was "Texas-Arkansas-Louisiana country", hence Talco.
Two post offices were established near the current site of Talco: Gouldsboro in 1856, and Goolesboro in 1878. Due to name conflict, the community changed its name to "Talco" based on the Texas, Arkansas, and Louisiana Candy Company initials on a candy wrapper. In 1912, Talco relocated to be closer to a railroad line.
Oil was discovered in 1936, leading to a big boom in the economy. Talco called itself the "asphalt capital of the world."
