Whats Going On In Vernon?'s Blurbs |
About me:
The first settlers in Wilbarger County were the Doans family who came to the area in 1878. They settled on the Red River north of Vernon near a
spot where the Western Trail of the famous Chisholm Trail crossed the Red River going north to cattle markets in Kansas. Millions of cattle were
driven out of Texas to northern markets over this route. Judge Doan and C.F. Doan established a trading post at this point and the old building still
remains. The Wilbarger County Historical Society has renovated the original adobe owned by C.F. Doan for a permanent historical attraction.
Just across the river from the Doan’s Community were the Comanche and Kiowa Indian Reservations. These Indians were food customers of the
store. The nearest Post Office was Henrietta some 70 miles to the east. In 1879 a mail line was established from Wichita Falls to points north through
Doan’s. A mail route was also established south to Seymour in 1880 and settlers began to move in very rapidly.
Wilbarger County was officially organized on October 10, 1881, and the county government was established at the time. A trading post was located at
Condon Springs (now Hillcrest Country Club) and a community was established called Eagle Flat because of the many eagles nesting in the area. The
Post Office Department later changed the name to Vernon in honor of Washington’s home, Mount Vernon. There being no mountains hereabouts, the
“Mount” was dropped. Just a little history for ya.
There are 3 city parks in Vernon. Facilities available in these parks include community buildings, shaded picnic areas, barbecue pits, playground
equipment, and baseball parks. State parks in the area include Copper Breaks State Park, 42 miles from Vernon; Quartz Mountain State Park, 49 miles
north; Wichita Mountains Wildlife Rxefuge, 70 miles and Great Plains State Park, 60 miles. Just some fun things around to do.to find out more,
There Is a Website that tells more. It tells about the Fun around town. The events in the yr. Just alot of fun facts & Pictures. Please go check it out. Leave me a comment.
