The area around Lost Creek started attracting settlers during the mid-1850s and was renamed Jacksboro in 1858 in honor of the Jack Brothers, veterans of the Texas Revolution. The westernmost Texas settlement after the Civil War, Jacksboro barely survived raids from Native Americans and features many ruins from the time period. To provide safety for the influx of migrants to the area, Fort Richardson was built just south of Jacksboro. With the arrival of the railroad in 1898, the town grew and even doubled in size by the 1930s, when oil was discovered in the nearby towns of Antelope and Bryson. Today, the town is a vibrant city just an hour's drive outside of Fort Worth.
