AREA HISTORY
Situated just south of De Kalb in the historic College Hill community of Bowie County, this region reflects the rich agricultural roots of Northeast Texas. First inhabited by Caddo tribes and later settled in the mid-1800s, the area developed around farming, timber, and cattle operations supported by fertile soils and reliable rainfall. Over generations, these early homesteads evolved into working ranches that continue to define the landscape today, where improved pastures, scattered hardwoods, and a strong ranching heritage offer both productivity and long-term land stewardship.
