Best small town in West Texas was founded by my gr-grandfather, Henry Sackett one of the very first Texas Rangers, Maultsby's Minutemen. After battling the Comanches at the Colorado River, he purchased the property in 1870 then married the captain's daughter, my great-grandmother Mary McNamara. We still own property in this town. He also mapped out the streets, and was the president of the very first Coleman County Texas Board Commission. this building originally was my great-grandmother's fabric shop called Sackett's Fabrics. Very proud of our family history.
