General Information:
Fort Worth is on Interstate highways 35W, 20, and 30 and the Clear Fork of the
Trinity River in central Tarrant County.
Fort Worth History:
In January 1849 United States Army General William Jenkins Worth, hero of the
Mexican War,qv proposed a line of ten forts to mark the western Texas frontier
from Eagle Pass to the confluence of the West Fork and Clear Fork of the Trinity
River. During the 1860s Fort Worth suffered from the effects of the Civil War
and Reconstruction. The population dropped as low as 175, and money, food, and
supply shortages burdened the residents. During World War I the United States
Army established Camp Bowie (in the Arlington Heights area), which trained
100,000 men, and the United States Army Air Force converted three airfields into
centers of aviation training. With the discovery of oil in Texas, refinery and
pipeline companies such as Sinclair Refining Company, Texaco, and Humble Oil and
Refining Company (later Exxon Company, U.S.A.) converged on Fort Worth, which
also developed into a center for oil stock exchanges. Over the past century the
city population has boomed-6,663 in 1880, 26,668 in 1900, 277,047 in 1950,
385,164 in 1980, and 447,619 in 1990, but in spite of increasing urbanization
Fort Worth has retained its western flavor as the city "Where the West Begins." |
