| Grand
Prairie is on U.S. highways 80 and 303, Interstate highways 20 and 30, and Farm
Road 1382, thirteen miles west of downtown Fort Worth in western Fort Worth and
eastern Tarrant counties. The townsite comprises seventy-three square miles
enclosed by Fort Worth, Arlington, Irving, and Cedar Hill. Mountain Creek Lake
is on the east, a portion of Joe Pool Lake is in southern Grand Prairie, and
Kirby, Cottonwood, and Fish creeks flow through the community. Settlers arrived
in the area before the Civil War and built several stores, including the M. M.
Miller store and the Phillip Goetsell store. The community was not organized,
however, until 1863, when A. M. Dechman's wagon broke down on his trip from
Jacksonville, Texas, to Fort Belknap with supplies for the army commissary. He
traded his broken wagon, ox team, and $200 of Confederate money for a 239-acre
tract that had originally been granted, on May 1, 1850, to William and Walter
Caruth. |
