Abilene is a city in Taylor and Jones counties in Texas, United States. The population was 122,999 at the 2019 census, making it the 27th-most populous city in the state of Texas. It is the principal city of the Abilene Metropolitan Statistical Area, which had a 2017 estimated population of 170,219. Abilene was incorporated soon after being founded in 1881&nbsp;and residents began to set their sights on bringing the county seat to Abilene. In a three-to-one vote, they won the county election to do so. In 1888, the Progressive Committee was formed to attract businesses to the area, and in 1890 renamed itself as the Board of Trade. By 1900, 3,411 people lived in Abilene. In that decade, the Board of Trade changed its name to the 25,000 Club, in the hope of reaching a population of 25,000 by the next census. By 1910, though, the population had increased only to 9,204. Another group was formed, the Young Men's Booster Club, which became the Abilene Chamber of Commerce in 1914.
Several major projects of restoration and new construction:&nbsp;The Grace Museum&nbsp;and&nbsp;Paramount Theatre, and development of Artwalk in 1992, sparked a decade of downtown revitalization. In 2004,&nbsp;Frontier Texas!, a multimedia museum highlighting the history of the area from 1780 to 1880, was constructed. That year an $8 million, 38-acre (150,000&nbsp;m2) Cisco Junior College campus was built at Loop 322 and Industrial Boulevard.
Simultaneously, subdivisions and businesses started locating along the freeway, on the same side as the CJC campus. This area attracted Abilene growth on the Loop. Abilene has become the commercial, retail, medical, and transportation hub of a 19-county area more commonly known as "The Big Country", but also known as the "Texas Midwest". It is part of the&nbsp;Central Great Plains&nbsp;ecoregion. By the end of 2005, commercial and residential development had reached record levels in and around the city.

Allen is a medium-sized city in Collin County just north of Dallas, Texas, and it's one of the fastest-growing communities in the state. It's far enough away from the Metroplex to provide a comfortable, small-town environment yet close enough to take advantage of everything the big city has to offer. Homes are available at a wide range of prices, and the city is well-planned for growth. The city of Allen is known for its pro-business climate, but it might be best known for its high school stadium, a $60M structure that is undergoing repairs in 2014.
The Allen area was previously home to the&nbsp;Caddo,&nbsp;Comanche, and other indigenous peoples. The first immigrants from the United States and Europe arrived in the early 1840s.&nbsp;The town was established by the Houston and Central Texas Railroad and named in 1872 for&nbsp;Ebenezer Allen, a state politician and railroad promoter.&nbsp;The railroad allowed sale of crops across the country before they rotted, causing a shift from the previous cattle-based agriculture. On February 22, 1878,&nbsp;a gang led by&nbsp;Sam Bass&nbsp;committed in Allen what is said to be Texas's first train robbery.
From 1908 through 1948, Allen was a stop along the Texas Traction Company's&nbsp;interurban&nbsp;line from&nbsp;Denison&nbsp;to Dallas. Allen was a small town of a few hundred residents when it was incorporated in 1953. Since this time, it has grown dramatically due to the construction of&nbsp;U.S. Route 75, the&nbsp;Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport, and the development of nearby Dallas and Plano.&nbsp;Among the more recent developments is the Waterford Parks neighborhood.

Arlington is a city in Texas, west of Dallas. It's home to the University of Texas at Arlington (UTA), whose campus has a modern planetarium. In River Legacy Parks, trails cut through hardwood forest rich in wildlife. The park also has the River Legacy Living Science Center, with aquariums, terrariums and interactive exhibits. The Dallas Cowboys football team plays at AT&amp;T Stadium, which also hosts concerts.
By 1925 the city's population was estimated at 3,031&mdash;well under the population of Dallas and Fort Worth at the time. In 1929, a horse-racing track called Arlington Downs was constructed by W.T. Waggoner close by to the speakeasy. Gambling was still illegal, but people were making bets regardless. Waggoner and his sons campaigned to make&nbsp;parimutuel betting&nbsp;legal, and in 1933 the state issued its first legal gambling permit to Arlington Downs. The track was immensely profitable at that point, making a daily average of $113,000 before inflation with a daily attendance average of 6,700 people. At the end of the 1937 season, the state legislature repealed their parimutuel gambling laws, and the Downs were sold to commercial developers.
In the 1940s, the Arlington Downs was used as a rodeo and event venue. Top O' Hill Terrace evaded the police until 1947, when famous&nbsp;Texas Ranger&nbsp;M. T. "Lone Wolf" Gonzaullas caught the gambling operation in full-swing and had the place shut down.&nbsp;The 1940s brought&nbsp;World War II&nbsp;to the forefront of the United States, and many families from around Texas moved to Arlington to find jobs. Before World War II, the city's population had grown to over 4,000. The war kick-started a manufacturing revolution in Texas. Arlington was between the biggest aerospace engineering hubs in Texas at the time, Dallas and Fort Worth.

Azle is a small city west of Fort Worth in Parker and Tarrant Counties in the U.S. state of Texas. As of the 2010 census, the city population was 10,947. Azle is the home of the Azle Marching Green Pride marching band and the Fighting Azle Hornets. Azle is on&nbsp;State Highway 199, 16 miles (26&nbsp;km) northwest of downtown&nbsp;Fort Worth, in the northwest corner of Tarrant County; the town extends partly into Parker and Wise Counties. According to the&nbsp;United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 8.8 square miles (22.9&nbsp;km2), of which 8.8 square miles (22.8&nbsp;km2) is land and 0.015 square miles (0.04&nbsp;km2), or 0.20%, is covered by water.
The first recorded settlement at the site occurred in 1846, when James Azle Steward, a young doctor, moved into a log cabin built by a&nbsp;Dutchman&nbsp;named Rumsfeldt. Other settlers came and established themselves near the local streams, Ash Creek, Silver Creek, and Walnut Creek. Steward helped establish the first cemetery, Ash Creek. The oldest graves there are those of Dave Morrison (1849&ndash;1874) and W. P. Gregg (1833&ndash;1874).&nbsp;The first post office opened in 1881, and the town took the name of O'Bar, in honor of the man who obtained the postal service. A short time later in 1883, the name was changed to Azle at the request of Steward, who donated the land for a townsite.&nbsp;The community's economy was based on&nbsp;agriculture. Several crops were grown, including&nbsp;wheat,&nbsp;corn,&nbsp;peanuts,&nbsp;sorghum, and&nbsp;cotton.&nbsp;Watermelons,&nbsp;cantaloupes,&nbsp;peaches,&nbsp;plums, and&nbsp;pears&nbsp;were also produced.&nbsp;Dairy farming&nbsp;became important in the early decades of the 20th century, when local milk products were sold to&nbsp;creameries&nbsp;in Fort Worth. Azle's population grew steadily, and by 1920, the census recorded 150 residents. By 1933, State Highway 34 (later State Highway 199) had reached Azle from Fort Worth, greatly improving transportation between the town and the city. Also,&nbsp;Eagle Mountain Lake&nbsp;was formed by a dam on the&nbsp;Trinity River, east of Azle.

Buffalo Gap is an incorporated town in Taylor County, Texas, United States. It is part of the Abilene, Texas Metropolitan Statistical Area. The population was 464 at the 2010 census. It is the former county seat of Taylor County, having been supplanted in 1883 by the much larger Abilene to its north. Abilene won the referendum to be the county seat by a vote of 905-269. Buffalo Gap was settled at the site of a natural pass through which bison herds traveled. It was a point on the Great Western Cattle Trail. The community has a few restaurants and art handicraft shops and caters to tourists. Buffalo Gap is the home of the large Buffalo Gap Historic Village, open year-round to visitors.
Buffalo Gap is located at the intersection of Farm-to-Market roads&nbsp;89&nbsp;and&nbsp;1235. It was established in 1857 and procured a post office in 1878. The Callahan Divide, a topographic boundary between the&nbsp;Brazos&nbsp;and&nbsp;Colorado&nbsp;river basins, crosses Buffalo Gap from east to west. Elm Creek once provided a watering hole for buffalo. The Buffalo Gap Highway (Farm Road 89) was surveyed in 1874 and followed the old Center Line Trail, which extended from&nbsp;El Paso&nbsp;to&nbsp;Texarkana&nbsp;on the Texas-Arkansas boundary.&nbsp;Another major road passed through Buffalo Gap in the direction of the abandoned&nbsp;Fort Phantom Hill&nbsp;north of Abilene. The road forked at Buffalo Gap; one branch led southwest to&nbsp;Pecos County, and the other south to&nbsp;Tom Green County, which includes the county seat of&nbsp;San Angelo. Taylor County history centered upon the gap in the Callahan Divide, where during the 1860s and 1870s, buffalo hunters made winter camp and transported their hides to&nbsp;Fort Griffin&nbsp;northeast of Abilene.

Clyde is a city in Callahan County, Texas, United States. The population was 3,713 at the 2010 census, up from 3,345 at the 2000 census. It is part of the Abilene metropolitan statistical area. The first settlers came to Clyde around 1876. Mr. Shephard built a log cabin, the first residence, around this time. Many others soon followed. Among the first settlers were people such as R. J. Estes who came all the way from Fort Worth. When he first came, he didn't plan on staying. Mrs. Estes and he had stopped only to rest, but soon decided to stay. In their quick decision to stay, they simply left their belongings under a tree while they traveled to get the rest of their belongings for their new home. All their belongings were still as they had left them when they returned a few months later. The railroad was prominent in Clyde. It started with only a boxcar, then later a station was added. Along with the railroad came more settlers, homes, and work. Soon a school was needed. The actual origin of the name "Clyde" is not known. Many believe it was named after a crew foreman. The man worked for the Texas and Pacific Railway Company. The company had a tent for the employees to get supplies. They would say, "Let's go up to Clyde's," not talking about the town, only the supply tent. Soon the railroad company would call their boxcar location "Clyde". The first post office soon followed. The first postmaster, Jesse L. Miller, was appointed June 27, 1881.

The community was first settled in the early 1850s. In 1842, Thomas Keenan, Isaac B. Webb, and William Cochran received original land grants in the area. By 1843, a community called Mustang Branch had been established. Mr. Cochran later changed the name to Farmers Branch to reflect the area's rich soil and farmland. Farmers Branch was the first location of the Texan Land and Emigration Company (or Peters Colony) in 1845. This made the community one of the best-known places in Dallas County during the 1840s because of its advertising throughout Europe and the United States. Baptist minister William Bowles opened a blacksmith shop and gristmill in 1845. On May 5, 1845, Isaac B. Webb donated land for Webb's Chapel Methodist Church, the first formal place of worship in Dallas County. A school was established in the church one year later. Webb became the first postmaster at the Farmers Branch post office, which opened on January 5, 1848. It continued to function until its closure in 1866. The post office reopened in 1875. To assure that railroads would eventually pass through Farmers Branch, prominent early settler Samuel Gilbert and others sold right-of-way through their land in 1874. Around three to four years later, the Dallas and Wichita Railway completed a track from Dallas &ndash; through Farmers Branch &ndash; to Lewisville. It was absorbed by the Missouri&ndash;Kansas&ndash;Texas Railroad in 1881. The community had a population of approximately 100 by 1890 with several businesses. The population had grown to 300 during the early 1900s. A brick school building was constructed in 1916. The number of people living in the community remained stable until after World War II.
Farmers Branch was incorporated as a city after an election was held on February 23, 1946.[9] William F. (Bill) Dodson was elected as the city's first mayor. The implementation of city services began immediately after incorporation. In the 1950 census, Farmers Branch had a population of 915. In 1956, a home rule charter was approved that adopted a council-manager form of government. The rapid growth of the city during the 1950s was made apparent in the 1960 census, which recorded a total of 13,441 residents, a 1,369 percent increase over the 1950 figure. Most of the new residents commuted to nearby Dallas for employment. The population topped 27,000 by 1970. A variety of manufacturers producing items such as steel products, concrete, asphalt, cosmetics, and food products were operating in the city. The number of residents declined to 24,863 in 1980 and 24,250 in 1990. The falling population was offset, however, by the wide variety of businesses located in the city. Farmers Branch is home to a large number of corporations that have attained frontage along Interstate 635, the Dallas North Tollway, and Interstate 35E. Its Dallas North Tollway segment is part of the Platinum Corridor, and its land along Interstate 635 is an extension of the lengthy Irving Prairie office park. By 2000, the city's population had grown to 27,508

In 1863, Dechman bought 239.5 acres (96.9&nbsp;ha) of land on the eastern side of the&nbsp;Trinity River&nbsp;and 100 acres (40&nbsp;ha) of timber land on the west side of the river for a broken-down wagon, oxen team and&nbsp;US$200 in&nbsp;Confederate&nbsp;money. He tried to establish a home on the property, but ran into difficulties, so he returned to his family in Birdville before joining in the&nbsp;Civil War. In 1867 he filed a town plat consisting of 50 acres (20&nbsp;ha) with Dallas County.
After the war, he returned to Birdville for two years before selling that farm in 1867 and moving to Houston, where yellow fever broke out, causing the family to settle in Bryan. In 1876, Dechman traded half his "prairie" property to the T&amp;P Railroad to ensure the railroad came through the town. The railroad named the depot "Dechman", prompting its namesake to relocate his home from Bryan to Dechman. His son Alexander had been living in Dechman and operating a trading post and farm. The first church in the area was the Good Hope Cumberland Sabbath School, established in 1870 by Rev. Andrew Hayter. The church was later renamed West Fork United Presbyterian Church and remains an active church.
The first U.S.&nbsp;post office&nbsp;opened in 1877 under the name "Deckman" rather than "Dechman", because the&nbsp;U.S. Postal Service&nbsp;couldn't read the writing on the form completed to open the post office. Later that same year, after the Postal Service had adopted the "Deckman" name, confusion resulted from the T&amp;P Railroad designation "Grand Prairie". This name was based on maps drawn from around 1850 through 1858 that labeled the area between Dallas and Fort Worth "the grand prairie of Texas". In order to alleviate the confusion, the Postal Service named the post office "Grand Prairie".
The town of Grand Prairie was eventually&nbsp;incorporated&nbsp;as a city in 1909. During&nbsp;World War I&nbsp;and since, Grand Prairie has had a long history with the defense and aviation industry. While the present-day&nbsp;Vought&nbsp;plant on Jefferson Avenue is part of a small strip within the Dallas city limits, it was originally in Grand Prairie. During World War II the&nbsp;North American Aviation&nbsp;Plant B produced the&nbsp;Consolidated B-24 Liberator&nbsp;and the&nbsp;P-51C and K Mustang&nbsp;variants. After the war, Vought Aircraft took over the plant. This later became&nbsp;Ling Temco Vought&nbsp;(LTV) and then eventually returned to the Vought moniker. The plant was the production site for the&nbsp;F-8 Crusader&nbsp;and the&nbsp;A-7 Corsair II&nbsp;aircraft of the 1950&ndash;1989 time period. The LTV Missile and Space division produced missiles such as the&nbsp;Scout&nbsp;and&nbsp;MLRS. This division was eventually sold to&nbsp;Lockheed Martin, which continues to operate in Grand Prairie. Grand Prairie was also the North American headquarters for&nbsp;A&eacute;rospatiale&nbsp;Helicopter. This company eventually became&nbsp;Airbus Helicopters, Inc., the U.S. subsidiary of&nbsp;Airbus Helicopters.
In 1953, the mayor and city council of Grand Prairie attempted to annex nearly 70 square miles (180&nbsp;km2) of then-unincorporated and largely undeveloped land in southern Dallas and Tarrant counties. Vehement debate ensued, and the legal pressure from cities like&nbsp;Arlington,&nbsp;Duncanville&nbsp;and&nbsp;Irving&nbsp;wound up overturning part of the annexation attempt.

Grapevine's story began in 1843&nbsp;when General Sam Houston and representatives of the Republic of Texas met with members of 10 American Indian nations. They joined to negotiate a treaty of peace and friendship at Grape Vine Springs, also known as Tah-Wah-Karro Creek. It resulted in a document, the Treaty of Birds Fort (because they met at nearby Birds Fort), which opened the area to homesteaders. Within a year, the first settlers started arriving, rolling in on covered wagons, on the Grape Vine Prairie. The wild mustang grapes that were abundant there gave the area its name, Grapevine. Grapevine is the oldest settlement in Tarrant County, originating under the Lone Star flag of the Republic of Texas in 1844, a year before Texas was annexed by the United States of America.&nbsp;
Today, the city has grown into a thriving center of culture and commerce, anchored by the Grapevine hospitality industry. Venues such as the buildings along&nbsp;

The first wave of European settlers arrived in the rolling&nbsp;Cross Timbers&nbsp;country of north central Texas in the 1840s. Primarily of&nbsp;Scotch-Irish&nbsp;origins, these pioneer farmers came for the most part from southern states, following the frontier as it shifted west of the&nbsp;Mississippi. They entered an area where&nbsp;Native Americans&nbsp;had been living for thousands of years. The&nbsp;Comanche&nbsp;posed a serious threat to the settlers, and in 1849, the U.S. Army established&nbsp;Fort Worth&nbsp;to protect the farms along the sparsely populated frontier.
The area southeast of the fort (and of the&nbsp;Trinity River) was well protected and presumably fairly well settled by the early 1850s. In one well-documented case, eight related families migrated to the area in 1853 from&nbsp;Illinois. Three of the four Gibson brothers in this group established homesteads about 4 miles (6&nbsp;km) northwest of present-day Mansfield. This settlement, which became known as the Gibson Community, included a school and a church building by 1860.
When R.S. Man and Julian Feild arrived around 1856 and built a&nbsp;grist mill&nbsp;at the crossroads that was to become the center of Mansfield, the beginnings of the community probably existed in the oak groves bordering Walnut Creek (originally called Cedar Bluff Creek). The Walnut Creek Congregation of the&nbsp;Cumberland Presbyterian Church&nbsp;had organized itself in 1854. Members met in each other's homes, so it is suspected that there was a cluster of houses in the area.
In 1856, Julian Feild purchased 540 acres (2.2&nbsp;km2) in the Mansfield area. Man and Feild completed their three-story brick grist mill sometime between 1856 and 1859. The mill, which produced flour and meal, was the first built in North Texas to utilize steam power and enjoyed patronage as far south as&nbsp;San Antonio&nbsp;and as far north as&nbsp;Oklahoma. The location of the mill in southeastern Tarrant County perhaps reflects the advanced state of wheat cultivation in the area and the ready availability of wood to feed the mill's steam boilers.
Feild opened a general merchandise store at the same time as the mill, located across Broad Street. He built a log house for his family, which also served as an inn for travelers and customers. By 1860, the nucleus of the future city existed. The first post office was established that year, with Julian Feild as postmaster.
During the&nbsp;American Civil War, the Man and Feild Mill supplied meal and flour to the&nbsp;Confederate States Army, hauling it to&nbsp;Shreveport, Louisiana, and&nbsp;Jefferson City, Missouri. As was common practice, the owners&nbsp;tithed&nbsp;ten percent of the mill's production to the Confederacy. The small community around the mill was unique in Tarrant County in that it prospered throughout the Civil War. "Feild's Freighters", assembled in ox-drawn wagon trains, went as far as&nbsp;Fort Sill, Oklahoma, where a part of the&nbsp;Indian Wars&nbsp;raged in the&nbsp;southern plains&nbsp;in the late 1860s and 1870s.
The prospering community which had grown up around the Man and Feild mill took on the name of "Mansfeild", a combination of the names of the founders. Repeated misspellings over the years resulted in the acceptance of the conventional spelling of "Mansfield." The town incorporated in 1909, continuing to be a hub for the surrounding farmland.
In 1956, a federal court ordered the Mansfield Independent School District to desegregate; the first such order in Texas. Protests by 300 whites in front of Mansfield High School, to prevent three black students from enrolling, touched off one of the&nbsp;longest-running desegregation battles&nbsp;of the&nbsp;Civil Rights Movement. Mansfield's school quietly desegregated in 1965 as it faced a lack of federal funds.

Some of Melissa's first settlers came from the old Highlands community, two and a half miles north of present-day Melissa. C.H. Wysong was one of the earliest settlers. A&nbsp;post office&nbsp;was established in 1853. The&nbsp;Houston and Texas Central Railroad&nbsp;was built in Melissa in 1872. The town was laid out at this time. The railroad encouraged many families to come to Melissa. The town is believed to have been named for the daughter of a railroad executive, George A. Quinlan (1838&ndash;1901) of the Houston and Texas Central Railroad. There is some disagreement about this, as others argue that the town was named after Melissa Huntington, daughter of C. P. Huntington, another well-known railroad executive.&nbsp;Anna, Texas, is named after Anna Elizabeth Quinlan (1878&ndash;1952), the only daughter of George Austin Quinlan and his wife Mary Kate Saunders (1851&ndash;1884).&nbsp;Quinlan, Texas, is named after George Austin Quinlan himself.
&nbsp; The first school in Melissa was built on land purchased in 1882 by trustees James Graves, John Gibson, and George Fitzhugh, who were early settlers of the area. The first teacher was Mary Huckerston, who taught there for five years. The school began with 38 pupils. Church services were held there for all faiths on Sundays. A two-story brick schoolhouse was built on this site in 1910 to accommodate growth brought by the railroad.
Melissa was an important shipping point in the early 1900s. Corn, wheat, alfalfa hay, wood, and livestock were all sent out on the railroad.
A deadly tornado struck Melissa on April 13, 1921, killing 13 people and injuring many more. The tornado tore the roof off of the brick school building, but the children inside were not seriously injured. However, all churches in the town, three cotton gins, every business house except a bank, the post office, and the Houston and Texas Central railway station, were wrecked. The Waldon Hotel was lifted by the winds, turned halfway around, and thrown up against the school building.
Eight years later, on August 8, 1929, a fire burned down many of the buildings that had been rebuilt after the tornado. Population declined from a high of 500 in 1925 down to 285 in 1949.

Mesquite prospered through the late 19th and early 20th centuries as a farming community, growing&nbsp;cotton,&nbsp;hay,&nbsp;corn, and&nbsp;sugar, and using the railroad to ship raw goods. The town remained predominantly&nbsp;agrarian&nbsp;until after&nbsp;World War II, when the&nbsp;suburban&nbsp;boom took root in Mesquite.
In 1946, the Mesquite Rodeo was founded by Charlie Columbus McNally, and was one of the only rodeos that had a permanent location. By the mid-1980s, the events were being broadcast by ESPN.
In 1959, Big Town Mall opened as the first air-conditioned shopping mall in the United States. The mall was demolished in the summer of 2006, and FedEx opened a logistics center on the property in 2017.
By 1970, the&nbsp;LBJ Freeway (I-635)&nbsp;was constructed, connecting Mesquite to its neighbors,&nbsp;Garland&nbsp;to the north and&nbsp;Balch Springs&nbsp;to the south. Also, in 1971,&nbsp;Town East Mall&nbsp;was constructed. The mall was used by director&nbsp;Ron Howard&nbsp;to film portions of the movie&nbsp;Cotton Candy&nbsp;in 1978. The mall's associated traffic and shops would continue to grow the town.
In 1986, the Mesquite Arena opened its doors as the new home for the Mesquite ProRodeo. By 1998, the facility was expanded to include a convention center, exhibition hall, and a&nbsp;Hampton Inn and Suites.
By the&nbsp;1990 census, the city had grown to 101,484 people, up from 1,696 residents in&nbsp;1950.
In 2011, Mesquite passed a law allowing beer and wine sales in the city. The measure had been considered several times for many years, but was always blocked by strong protest against the proposed sales. It was one of the few cities without beer and wine sales in eastern Dallas County before the law came into effect.
In June 2015, the Mesquite Arts Center added a Freedom Park exhibit, in memorial of&nbsp;September 11. The park displays a 15-foot (4.6&nbsp;m) beam that was recovered from the remains of&nbsp;Ground Zero. The Mesquite Fire Department received the beam in 2011

In the late 1870s T. B. Wilson and his brother George began farming near the site of future Princeton. In 1881 the Missouri, Kansas and Texas Railroad Company extended its line from Greenville to McKinney, passing through land owned by the brothers. The name "Wilson's Switch" was commonly used to designate the area. When residents applied for a post office branch, however, they learned that the name Wilson was already being used. The community then submitted the name "Princeton" in honor of Prince Dowlin, a landowner and promoter of the town. This name was accepted, and a post office was established in 1888.[5] In 1940, a camp of 76 cabins was built west of Princeton to house up to 400 migrant workers, who came to work during the onion and cotton seasons. In February 1945, the site became a prisoner-of-war camp for German prisoners captured during the Second World War. The local farmers paid the POWs to work on their farms. This operation continued for eight months. Under a special bill, the German prisoners were contracted to work on the City Park located across from city hall. The park was built as a living memorial and shrine to those who served and died during World War II. The Community Park/WWII P.O.W. Camp is located at 500 West College Street.

Patton and his family in 1844. They settled in what is now known as Ovilla, Texas, located about two miles from Red Oak. Before Red Oak was given its name in 1849, it was known as Possum Trot due to the animal that lived there. The Missouri, Kansas and Texas Railroad began near the Red Oak area in 1884 and was completed in 1890. This railroad allowed people to travel to Dallas and Waco. In 1949, Red Oak became an incorporated town of Ellis, County.

The Colony derives its name from the original Peters Colony. The Peters Colony headquarters was located within the current boundaries of The Colony in the historical community of Stewartsville and the site of the Hedgcoxe War.The Colony is also the site of Bridges Settlement (established during the years of the Republic of Texas and the oldest community in Denton County), Stewarts Creek, Rector, Stoverville and Camey, also known as Camey Spur.
The Colony did not exist before 1973, when home developers Fox and Jacobs (since purchased by Centex) purchased 3,000 acres of land located around State Highway 121 and Farm to Market Road 423. The name "The Colony" was chosen by Fox and Jacobs because they wanted its new development to share a sense of kinship with Texas' early history and "to create a living monument to the spirit and courage of the Peters Colonists ... those men and women who braved considerable hardships to begin new lives, in new homes, on new land."&nbsp; They planned the development to be a new "dream city" consisting primarily of single-family homes grouped as a "colony" and based on the city of Dallas' infrastructure specifications, In 1973, Fox and Jacobs negotiated an agreement with the city of Frisco to begin construction in its extraterritorial jurisdiction. In 1974, street construction began with many streets being named after early settlers and members of the construction crews. The first model homes were completed in August 1974 and the first families moved into their homes in October that year. The homes were served for water services by The Colony Municipal Utility District formed in 1974, electricity via Texas Power and Light, cable television via Lakeside CATV and telephone service via Southwestern Bell.
In 1977, the homeowners associations' petition to disannex the development from the city of Frisco's extraterritorial jurisdiction was approved. The Colony voted to become an incorporated city in January 1977 and became a Home Rule City in 1979. Residents of The Colony participated in two polls to select a name for the new city. Both polls chose the name "The Colony" and the name was ratified by the City Council in May 1977. In 1987, The Colony voted to merge with the small lakeside community of Eastvale

Van Alstyne was built in 1872, for settlers to be near the railroad stop of the Houston and Texas Central Railway.[4] The town was named for either William A. Van Alstyne, a civil engineer with the railroad, or for Marie Van Alstyne, a shareholder in the railroad company.[5] The town was incorporated in 1890. Per a Van Alstyne Leader newspaper article September 3, 2015 the Outlaw "Bushwhacker Bill" Wilson, on whom the Clint Eastwood movie The Outlaw Josey Wales is based, was murdered somewhere in the vicinity of either the intersection of Texas Hwy 5 and Prong Creek 1 mile North of Van Alstyne or South of Van Alstyne halfway to the old ghost town[6] of Mantua. A lot of movie buffs would likely be interested if this was marked somewhere in the town.
