The story
from WikipediaRead it all ↗This area of Texas had been lightly settled under Spanish and Mexican rule. It was primarily settled after annexation by the United States by migrants from the South, many of whom arrived before the American Civil War. In that period, farmers had established cotton plantations. It was also an area of pine forests.

Nothing in Omaha is on the National Register yet
That’s true of most small towns. It doesn’t mean Omaha has no history, only that no one has written up a nomination. The closest listed place is Old Morris County Courthouse in Daingerfield, 10.5 miles away.
