Which airport has runway configuration 1/19?

Runway numbers come from the magnetic direction of the runway, rounded to the nearest ten degrees, with the two ends of a runway carrying opposite headings. A runway labeled 1/19 has directions about 010 degrees and 190 degrees. That orientation matches the primary runway at Vicksburg (KVKS), which is aligned roughly northeast–southwest along 010/190, so it carries the designation 1/19. The other listed airports have runways oriented to different directions, so they would not be labeled 1/19. (Keep in mind that magnetic variation can shift over time and the numbers can be updated if needed.)
