Wichita County, Texas
.Wichita County, located in the great state of Texas, has a rich history dating back to its establishment in 1882. Named after the Native American Wichita tribe who were also known as Kichai, the county occupies an area of 633 square miles in the north-central part of the state.
Before European settlers arrived, Wichita County was primarily inhabited by Wichita and Kichai tribes, followed by the Comanches and Kiowas. The first recorded exploration of the area was by Spanish explorer Jose Mares in 1787. However, significant European settlement began only after the Texas Revolution in the 1830s and 1840s, following the establishment of Fort Belknap to the south and Fort Richardson to the east.
The growth of Wichita County was accelerated by the construction of the Fort Worth and Denver Railway, which was completed in 1882. This new rail connection provided vital economic opportunities for the region by enabling cattle ranching and agriculture to reach broader markets. The county seat, Wichita Falls, became an important trading and transportation hub and experienced rapid growth during this time.
Wichita County experienced another boost when oil was discovered in the area in 1918, leading to the formation of the Burkburnett oil field. This event brought an influx of people and wealth to the area, transforming it into a thriving center of the oil industry.
Today, Wichita County is a diverse and prosperous region with a strong economy based on agriculture, oil and gas production, as well as manufacturing and the service sector. It also benefits from the presence of Sheppard Air Force Base, which was established during World War II and continues to play a significant role in national defense.
Fun fact: Wichita Falls, the county seat of Wichita County, is home to the "World's Littlest Skyscraper," also known as the Newby-McMahon Building. This four-story, 40-foot-tall building was constructed during the oil boom in 1919, and its peculiar size is attributed to an alleged swindle in which a blueprint scale confusion left investors with a much smaller building than expected.
