LANGFORD COVE

LANGFORD COVE: Asa Langford arrived in the area in 1855 and purchased land--210 acres in Coryell County and 750 acres in the unorganized territory in what was to become Hamilton County in 1858. In January, 1860, a group of residents of Langford Cove petitioned the Committee on County and Country Boundaries in the Texas Senate to attach to Hamilton County three square miles of Coryell County so that Asa Langford, T. T. Ragsdale, James Witcher, and Samuel Sneed would live in Hamilton County. The petition was denied. Langford Cove was about eighteen miles south of Hamilton.
