The population was 726 at the 2000 census. The name comes from a 7 foot falls in the Arkansas River, itself named in honor of Walter Webber, a Cherokee leader who lived there in the early 19th Century.The I-40 Bridge Disaster happened on May 26, 2002, a barge collided with a bridge support near Webbers Falls, causing a 580 foot section of the I-40 bridge to plunge into Kerr Reservoir on the Arkansas river. Automobiles and semi-trucks fell into the water killing 14 people, including a three-year-old girl and two horses. The bridge has since been repaired.
