The first postmaster was William A. Qualls.

Sometime between World War I and World War II, that original name was shortened in common usage to the present "Qualls". Qualls Road and Burnt Cabin Road remain on the present maps of the area to memorialize that history. The name is further memorialized in on the shores of Lake Tenkiller. Today, "downtown" Qualls is defined by Jincy's Kitchen, a home-cooking diner now operating in a building formerly used as a set in two movies, including "Where the Red Fern Grows". Former Major League Baseball player Johnny Callison was born in Qualls in 1939. (en)
