Community rivalry,
a devastating fire,
and the location of
two railroads played
a vital part in the
founding of the city
called Garland,
Texas.
Before Texas attained
statehood in 1846, the
Garland area was part
of the vast Peters colony,
a venture by W. S. Peters
for the settlement of
families around the
present Dallas, Texas
area.
