Area History
Morris County, established in 1875 and named for early planter William Wright Morris, lies in northeastern rural Texas along the Arkansas and Oklahoma borders. Settlers here built cotton plantations and cattle farms, relying on fertile soils and timber-rich forests to grow their livelihoods. During WWII, iron ore from the region supported defense facilities, and afterward, farming and ranching continued to serve as the economic backbone. Today, Morris County appeals to ranch buyers seeking timeless working land with access to Daingerfield State Park and a quiet East Texas lifestyle.
