  • Electra Is a City in Wichita County, Texas, United States. It Is Part of the Wichita Falls, Texasmetropolitan Statistical Area
    Electra is a city in Wichita County, Texas, United States. It is part of the Wichita Falls, TexasMetropolitan Statistical Area. The population was 2,791 at the 2010 census.[3], down from 3,168 in 2000. Electra claims the title of Pump Jack Capital of Texas, a title made official by the state in 2001,[4] and has celebrated an annual Pump Jack Festival since 2002.[5] It was named in honor of Electra Waggoner, an heiress to the Waggoner Ranch.[6] History Daniel Waggoner started a ranch in present-day Electra in 1852. Around 30 years later, the Fort Worth and Denver City Railway was built, and its railroad tracks ran through the area. In 1885, Waggoner's son, William Thomas Waggoner, successfully lobbied railroad executives to build a railroad station at the site. By this time, the Waggoner ranch covered a half-million acres. Until this time, the town was called Waggoner, but following the building of the station and a post office in 1889, it was dubbed Beaver Switch, after the nearby Beaver Creek. The opening of 56,000-acre (230 km2) of land north of the railroad station brought more farmers to the area. The town was renamed again in 1907, this time after Waggoner's daughter, Electra Waggoner. Water can be scarce in this region of Texas, so Waggoner started drilling for water for the town's new residents. Most of these drilling sites were befouled by crude oil, which made the water unfit for drinking. Three years later, a developer from Fort Worth named Solomon Williams bought the land from Waggoner.

  • (Stan) Kroenke
    For Immediate Release STAN KROENKE APPROVED AS NEW OWNER OF TEXAS’ LEGENDARY W.T. WAGGONER RANCH Vernon, TX, February 9, 2016 – Representatives for the renowned W.T. Waggoner Ranch today announced that Judge Dan Mike Bird of the 46th Judicial District Court has allowed the Waggoner’s owners to proceed with a private transaction under which Stan Kroenke, American businessman, professional sports team owner and rancher, will become the Waggoner’s new owner. This historic transaction will be the first-ever sale of the Waggoner, an approximately 535,000 acre estate which was established in 1849 and spans across 6 Texas counties and almost 800 sQuare miles. It is currently the largest ranch under one fence in the U.S., and includes thousands of cattle, hundreds of horses and oil wells, and 30,000 acres of farmland. Terms of the potential transaction were not disclosed. “This is an incredible opportunity and an even greater responsibility,” said Mr. Kroenke. “We are honored to assume ownership of the Waggoner – a true Texas and American landmark – and are deeply committed to continuing the proud legacy of W.T. “Tom” Waggoner, his family and his descendants. Our gratitude to them and to the many parties involved in this process is immense. We will continue to preserve and protect this uniQuely American treasure.” “The selection of Mr. Kroenke and potential sale bring to a close an unprecedented global marketing effort,” said Bernard Uechtritz, one of the seller’s representatives. “The sale of the Waggoner was an extraordinarily complex and multi-faceted process, and its successful culmination is a tribute to the many people, teams and layers of teams representing all sides behind the process.” Bradley Wharton, a representative of the Wharton heirs to the Waggoner Ranch, stated, “Amid an emotional and, at times, trying sale process, we never lost sight of what we wanted in a new owner of this historic property: a keen sense of tradition, a love of the land, and loyalty to the people who work here.

  • Waggoner Ranch History
    History Dan Waggoner was born in Tennessee on July 7, 1828. He was brought to Texas in the middle 1840's when his family settled in Hopkins County. His father died in 1848, and about 2 years later, tall blue-eyed Dan Waggoner bought 6 horses and 242 head of Longhorns and located on Denton Creek, in Wise County, near the frontier town of Decatur. In 1851, he increased his herd and bought 15,000 acres near Cactus Hill, about 18 miles west of Decatur. Waggoner prospered and kept adding to his pastures and to his herds. In 1870, with his son Tom and a few picked hands, he trailed a herd from the Little Wichita to Kansas and came home with $55,000 in his saddlebags. This enabled him to buy more Longhorns at $8.00 a head and to add to his land. Soon he had pastures in Wilbarger, Foard, Wichita, Baylor, Archer and Knox Counties. Dan Waggoner died in Colorado in 1903. In 1960 he and 80 other cowboys were original inductees into the Cowboy Hall of Fame in Oklahoma City. W.T. Waggoner was born in Hopkins County, Texas. He formed the W.T. Waggoner Estate in 1923. He had three children, Electra, Guy and E. Paul. At 14, W.T. had said, "I want to run the most cattle, breed the best horses and work harder than anyone." When he was 17, his Dad made him a full partner. By the time he was 27, Tom had full reins of the Waggoner Cattle Empire. To W.T.
