AREA HISTORY
Omaha, Texas, originally named Morristown in 1880 and briefly known as Gavett, was renamed "Omaha" in 1886 when residents drew names from a hat--chosen by Hugh Ellis after his Alabama hometown.
Nestled in timbered eastern Morris County, the town grew from a Cotton Belt Railway stop into a trading center, offering rolling pasturelands and small-town charm that appeal to todays ranch buyers.
