Western Heritage Collection

Picture
Montague County saw millions of Texas Longhorns pass through on their way to Kansas markets along the famous Chisholm Trail.  Drovers pushed herds through the County to Red River Station, where the Trail crossed the mighty Red River.  Nocona's annual Chisholm Trail Rodeo with a history spanning over sixty years, pays tribute to this history.  Our new Western Heritage Exhibit Hall will tells the complete story!

Three Montague County women are members of the National Cowgirl Hall of Fame in Fort Worth:  Miss Enid Justin (Nocona Boot Company founder), Ruth Roach Salmon (bronc rider and trick roper for the Buffalo Bill Wild West Show and the 101 Wild West Show), and Donna Howell-Sickles (cowgirl artist from Saint Jo).
