In Eastland County in the west-central region of Texas, Ranger is like many other nearby towns and cities in this part of The Lone Star State. It owes its existence to the discovery of large oil deposits in the region. Towards the close of WWI, a severe drought struck the Ranger region. Residents persuaded the Texas and Pacific Coal Company in nearby Thurber to explore for oil locally. What happened next was the stuff of legends; McCleskey Number 1 well blew, resulting in a flow of 1,700 barrels per day. In oil-gush times (circa 1920), Ranger’s population topped more than 16,000 souls.
