About Farwell, TX

Farwell began as a cow-camp for the XIT Ranch, the huge ranch that was established in 1880. Farwell was named for the two Farwell brothers of Lake Forest, Illinois, who built the Texas state capital building in exchange for 3.050,000 acres of virgin ranchland. That region of Texas had been controlled by the Comanche from about 1725, when they defeated the Apache and forced them to migrate to the Rockies in New Mexico and to other regions. The Red River War of 1874-1875—the biggest military operation the U.S. had between the Civil War and World War One—saw five armies converge on that part of the High Plains, ultimately defeating the main Comanche force in Palo Duro Canyon (80 miles northeast of Farwell) by driving off and slaughtering the Comanches' horses.
