Not to long ago I did a project on one of Collin Counties own who was in the state senate and Texas state governor. While his Father is Buried two miles
outside of Melissa at Throckmorton Cemetery. His father
is whom Throckmorton County was named after. James W. Throckmorton was the Son of William Edward Throckmorton A revolutionary war hero. James mother died shortly before they came to Texas. Later on he married Ann Rattan by whom he had many children. He died of a fall and kidney failure
in 1895.
