The area that would later become Texas City, was first established in the 1830’s. Fishermen, farmers, and cattle ranchers were among the first to explore the area. The founders had a vision for the land, they saw an opportunity to establish a massive shipping hub, for both sea and railway. This vision would become a reality in 1911 with the establishment of Texas City.
